Managing Cross-Cloud Replication Credentials

You can edit the name or access key (AK/SK) of a cross-cloud replication credential. If you no longer need the cross-cloud replication credential, you can delete it. This section describes how to edit, delete, and export a cross-cloud replication credential.

Constraints

  • If a cross-cloud replication policy is scheduled to run while its associated credentials' name or target cloud AK/SK is being edited, the replication may fail. The system will attempt to retry automatically.
  • Deleted credentials cannot be recovered.
  • After you delete the credentials that have been used to create cross-cloud replication policies, cross-cloud replication will become unavailable.
