Recovery Needs Are On the Rise

Drivers:

Less tolerance fordowntime with moreworkloads deemedmission or businesscritical

Beyond DR: Disaster Avoidance And Planned Migrations

Recover from unexpected

site failure

Full or partial site failure

The most critical but least

frequent use-case

Unexpected site failures do

not happen often

When they do, fast recovery

is critical to the business

Anticipate potential

datacenter outages

For example: in case of

planned hurricane, floods,

forced evacuation, etc.

Initiate preventive failover

for smooth migration

Leverage SRM planned

migration to ensure no data-

loss

Automated failback enables

easy return to original site

Most frequent SRM use case

Planned datacenter

maintenance

Global load balancing

Streamline routine

migrations across sites

Non-disruptive testing

Execute partial failovers

Leverage SRM planned

migration to ensure no

data-loss

Automated failback

enables bi-directional

migrations

Simple Setup And Management of Recovery And Migration Plans

Weeks or months to set up Error-prone

Quickly falls out of sync with appsand infrastructure changes

Step 5

Five Simple Steps To Create Recovery And Migration Plans

Create Recovery Plansin 5 Steps

Step 1

Map production site resources to recovery site Resource pools vSwitches VM folders

Select virtual machine protection groupsto include in recovery

Specify boot sequence of recovered VMs

Customize IP addresses of recovered VMs

Select low-priority VMs to suspend atrecovery site

And Eliminate Manual Steps ofTraditional Recovery

Coordinate storage and replication processes

for recovery Stop replication and make replicatedLUNs writable

Present data to applications Present VMs to vSphere

Reconfigure individual hosts

Reconfigure physical switchinginfrastructure

Recover entire systems including OSand application binaries

Add messages and custom scriptsOptional

Set Up Multiple Recovery Plans For Partial Recoveries

Overview

Benefits

Multiple recovery plans can be set up forexample One recovery plan per app

One recovery plan for the entire datacenter

Minimum unit of recovery is the protection group Roughly equivalent to all the VMs on a single

storage LUN / datastore

Enable partial failovers and migrations

Single app to avoid maintenance downtime

Whole datacenter in the event of DR

Simpli fy Replication Management With vSphere Replication

Overview

Benefits

vSphere Replication is a built-inasynchronous host based replication solutionsimple to set up and manage:

Managed at the individual VM-level

Managed and configured directly fromvCenter

Storage and bandwidth efficient

15 Minutes-24 Hours RPOs

Eliminates complex interactions betweenvSphere and storage teams to set upreplication

Eliminates need to shuffle VMs betweendatastores to map applications toreplicated LUNs

SRM Reduces Recovery Risk With Frequent Testing

During the testing gap, organizations cant be sure that theycan recover the current IT environment

A failover scenario may take days or weeks to complete,leaving the business at extreme risk

Planned Migrations For App Consistency & No Data Loss

Overview

Benefits

Two workflows can be applied to recovery plans: DR failover

Planned migration

Planned migration ensures applicationconsistency and no data-loss during migration Graceful shutdown of production VMs in

application consistent state

Data sync to complete replication of VMs

Recover fully replicated VMs

Better support for planned migrations

No loss of data during migration process

Recover application-consistent VMs atrecovery site

Successful Business Continuity Requires Careful Planning

Business Requirements / Business Impact Analysis (BIA) Map service Tiers by availability requirements and cost

For each service, identify Availability requirements, Recovery Time Objectives(RTO), Recovery Point Objectives (RPO)

Application Dependency Mapping Identify dependencies between application components

Weakest link in the chain? (AD, DNS, etc)
