  1. Disaster Recovery of VMware Workloads David Davis Twitter: @davidmdavisBlog: www.VMwareVideos.com

  2. About the speaker • Previous VMware Customer, IT Manager, Server & Network Admin with 18 years in IT Contributor to industry publications

  3. Agenda • Preparing for Disaster • Types of Disasters • RTO vs. RPO • VMware High Availability (VMHA) • VMware Fault Tolerance (FT) • VMware Site Recovery Manager (SRM) • SRM Requirements

  4. Preparing for Disaster Backing up VMs not enough • Backup data must be moved off-site • Preparation will avoid data loss • Many types of disasters can impact a VM environment

  5. Preparing for Disaster Virtualization makes backup and DR simple • Hardware independence • Image-based backups • Efficient resource management – DRS • Automated failover and replication

  6. Types of Disaster • Server failure = HA or FT • VM corrupted = Veeam Backup & Replication, restore • Datacenter failure = Replicated VM or VMware SRM

  7. RTO vs. RPO Recovery Time Objective (RTO) Recovery Point Objective (RPO) VM VM business data vs. 6h 3h 0h 12 h Amount of elapsed time allowed by business to recover data Point time to which data must be recover RTO and RPO negotiated to derive SLA

  11. SRM 4 Requirements • Replication-cable SAN hardware • Site to site network requirements • High bandwidth requirements • vSphere and SRM compatibility • vSphere 4, vCenter 4 needed for SRM

  12. SAN-based Replication • Hardware replication from SAN array • Continuous Data Protection (CDP) • Hardware and licensing investments • May require entire LUN replication • Frequent replication possible – but very expensive = =

  13. What we covered • Preparing for Disaster • Types of Disasters • VMware High Availability (HA) • VMware Fault Tolerance (FT) • VMware Site Recovery Manager (SRM) • RTO vs. RPO • SRM Requirements • SAN-based Replication
