Multi-site Small Business Disaster Recovery Solution
Company requirements: remove physical tape and any human intervention for backups at remote
sites – completely automate backup and disaster recovery. Fewer than 1 TB at each remote site and
up to 24 remote sites.
Solution: Multi-remote site D2D iSCSI devices replicating into a central consolidated D2D at a disaster
recovery site.
Caveats: Some scripting is required for automated replicated data catalog imports at the target site.
(HP Data Protector). Other ISVs require manual import. Sizing replication links and replication window
is key; use the HP StorageWorks Backup Sizer.
ISVs: HP Data Protector Express, HP Data Protector, Backup Exec, Netbackup, Networker, TSM,
Commvault Galaxy, BakBone NetVault – D2D4000 and D2D2500, Syncsort Backup Express –
D2D4000 and D2D2500.
Device configuration highlights: Remote sites typically will have only one virtual library configured.
The central site can have up to four slot mappings per virtual library. 6 x 4 gives support for up to
24 remote sites.
Consider configuring multiple virtual libraries for different data types (office files, MSExchange
databases) across multiple host servers to get best possible performance and deduplication ratio.
