Commvault Disaster Recovery solution

 


Commvault Disaster Recovery

 Senthilkumar Muthusamy

The Commvault Disaster Recovery solution uses hypervisor and Commvault components on the primary site and on the secondary (destination) site.


The Commvault deployment can reside on separate infrastructure or can be co-located with the primary site. If the Commvault deployment is co-located with the primary site, configure CommCell Disaster Recovery to ensure that the Commvault deployment remains accessible if the primary site is unavailable.

NetApp ONTAP Multi-Admin Verification

 


NetApp ONTAP Multi-Admin Verification

Beginning with ONTAP 9.11.1, you can use multi-admin verification (MAV) to ensure that certain operations, such as deleting volumes or Snapshot copies, can be executed only after approvals from designated administrators. 

This prevents compromised, malicious, or inexperienced administrators from making undesirable changes or deleting data.

NetApp ONTAP Consistency Group Configuration

 



A consistency group is a collection of volumes that are managed as a single unit. In ONTAP, consistency groups provide easy management and a protection guarantee for an application workload spanning multiple volumes.



You can use consistency groups to simplify your storage management. Imagine you have an important database spanning twenty LUNs. You could manage the LUNs on an individual basis or treat the LUNs as a solitary dataset, organizing them into a single consistency group.
Consistency groups facilitate application workload management, providing easily configured local and remote protection policies and simultaneous crash-consistent or application-consistent Snapshot copies of a collection of volumes at a point in time. Snapshot copies of a consistency groups enable an entire application workload to be restored.

NetApp ONTAP FlexCache Configuration

 NetApp ONTAP FlexCache Configuration:


NetApp FlexCache technology accelerates data access, reduces WAN latency and lowers WAN bandwidth costs for read-intensive workloads, especially where clients need to access the same data repeatedly. When you create a FlexCache volume, you create a remote cache of an already existing (origin) volume that contains only the actively accessed data (hot data) of the origin volume.
