Data Protection
|
Block Protection:
- Snapshot allows you to manage snapshots of storage devices.
- Remote Replication Pair and Remote Replication Consistency Group allows you to set up a replication relationship between the local and remote devices and synchronize data from the primary LUN to the secondary LUN on the remote device. If data on a storage device is lost due to a disaster, data on the other storage device is available, ensuring data security and availability.
- HyperMetro Pair, HyperMetro Consistency Group, HyperMetro Domain, and Quorum Server allow you to implement real-time data synchronization and uninterrupted service access in the event of a fault.
- Replication Cluster allows you to manage HyperMetro and remote replication services.
File Protection: - Snapshot allows you to manage snapshots of storage devices.
Object Protection:
- Remote Replication ensures data consistency between clusters in a region and service continuity in the event of a link failure.
