- Old Edinburgh office held about 60 staff. It had its own ESX servers/SAN equipment, etc. Was used as full DR location. With bidirectional backup coverage. 10mb WAN link – we’ve had to work within this at all times.
- Good old BackupExec! Tape has always had its issues: Bad media. Lost tapes! Insecure storage. Low number of available staff @ DR meant low numbers of servers available to be restored.
- TPT has no regulatory compliance issues.
- How much time have we all spent on backups? We need to eliminate this for a system that ‘just works’. I myself used to spend every evening dialling in and checking the state of each backup or replication job and resetting the various jobs. It used to take up a LOT of my time. Some companies may choose to only have an archive onsite and live data only offsite. They’ll accept the loss of the archive in a disaster event. Its all about risk and it’s the business who make the call and set the budget. We want appplication level restore without the need for multiple backup applications. One application that can do it all.
- Fast recovery depends on your means! Synchronous, real time replication is great but costs the earth, both in storage and bandwidth. Its all about what is acceptable to your business. Consistent data – Exchange, SQL, AD to be up and running without the need to conduct repairs. DR normally means desktops need t be available too – VDI is the way to go here. Have a standby virtual desktop pool, keep it updated with your head office images and simply fire it up via the web from your offsite ESX when needed.
- BEFORE SLIDE So, what happened with Mirrorview? A reseller recently told me that EMC have stopped selling Mirrorview/A, they were told that it ‘never worked properly’. Unfortunately, it’s the product we to try storage level replication. Mirrorview/S is still available.

- AFTER SLIDE: Instead of getting a new SAN, we had to work out what functionality we were missing from our current SAN – replication and deduplication efficiency, and get that from an alternate device.

Backup archive – some companies need to meet regulatory compliance and keep many years worth of data. Deduplicated storage devices are a great option here.
