   A file system has a protection policy with a snapshot rule (hourly, 24-hour retention) and a replication rule to a remote site. The administrator needs to change the replication target to a new remote PowerStore. The current replication session is healthy. What is the correct procedure?

   • BCreate a new replication session manually to the new target and then remove the old session.
   • CDelete the replication rule from the policy and add a new one with the new target.
   • DModify the replication rule in the policy to point to the new remote system; the next replication cycle will use the new target.
