Solution Configuration
This chapter describes the optimum solutions provided by the ETERNUS AF linking with software programs.
11.1 Continuous Business
11.1.1 Remote Copy Operations for the Storage System (Copies between ETERNUS AF
Storage Systems)
■
Solution Overview
The ETERNUS AF
can perform real time data transfers from the operation site to a remote site. Even if an
error occurs in the operation site, operations can continue by switching operation from the operation site to
the backup site. Data transfers to a remote site occur only between storage systems, not through servers,
which reduces the load on the server.
Support for multiple transfer methods also enables flexible backup systems to be configured according to the
operation environment.
