Using replication on a D.R. site

I'm new to vSphere replication.  I have a few VMs reproducing on our production site on our site of DR.  My question is when we are going to test a scenario DR I want to turn on virtual machines on the DR site and test them.  My plan is to set up the virtual machine, change the name and the IP address, then connect to the network and restart.  It will work, or should I use the recovery feature?

The primary VMs should stay on because they are production servers.  I need only the data since the last replication.  They are set on a 24-hour rpo.

Hello

Unfortunately, when you use replication without SRM vSphere, there is no functionality to "test the failover.

Also replicated files are not directly usable as a virtual machine image, because they have newspapers for restoring above them.

You can use the recovery in VR UI Wizard make a recovery using the latest available data (you can manually request a synchronization before, the case may be). This does not stop the source of the VM.

Once you are finished with the recovered virtual machine test, you can cancel the registration of the vCenter Server inventory, but keep the files on disc.

Then you stop replication and set it up again, it points to the hard already existing files - use them as initial copies.

The scenario described you, would go smoothly if SRM is used on top of RV:

1 once ongoing 'Failover Test', there will be a test THAT VM listed in the inventory of target site vCenter server, sharing the same channel discs replication + some redo logs on top.

2. the replication proceeds normally, to whatever the value RPO is set, affected by the fact that there is a test created image.

3. once the "cleansing" is running on the recovery plan - additional recovery logs are ignored.

Kind regards

Martin

  • I'm upgrading to Adobe CC. Currently, I use Dreamweaver CS5 to my Web site. Should what steps I take to ensure that I can edit my site in Dreamweaver cc?

    I'm upgrading to Adobe CC. Currently, I use Dreamweaver CS5 to my Web site. Should what steps I take to ensure that I can edit my site in Dreamweaver cc?

    You can go to Site > Manage Sites > export to create files .ste with your settings to be imported into the new version of the site. This way your info ftp and other site specific parameters will meet instantly, rather than having to create new definitions of site by hand.

    Other that that, there really nothing that needs to be done for CC to understand your old files.

    When installing CC, make sure you click on the advanced settings in the Installer link and disable "Remove older Versions". You can easily have CS5 and installed CC at the same time to make the transition less sharp. There are some pretty big changes between CS5 and CC can take you awhile to get under your belt. Have the old version will allow you to continue to work with something that you know while you do the adjustment with the new software.

    CC has more Spry example, if whatever it is done using the framework Spry will no longer offer that you dialogue windows when you want to change. You will need to either open the old program or switch to the jQuery version (if it is available in the DW interface). It won't 'break' your Spry effects, it just will not allow you to change from the windowed interface (adjustments should be coded manually or in the old software).

  • What happens if I use a Typekit font for a site and later stop creative cloud

    A customer asked me if I use a Typekit font on its site, what happens if I stop using the creative cloud. Fonts still work on its site?

    Thank you

    Gerry

    Check the Typekit TOS agreement.

    http://www.Adobe.com/products/EULAs/tou_typekit/

    If you cancel your subscription of cloud, I'm sure you will need to subscribe separately to Typekit.   The individual plan is free but you must join to use.

    As an alternative to TypeKit, look at Adobe Edge free Web Fonts.

  • Using custom components will break my site if the framework is updated?

    Using custom components will break my site if the framework is updated?

    For example if I use the tink browser which is a version of the spark of the viewstack: http://www.tink.ws/blog/flex-4-navigator/

    In the case of update of the framework, it is possible that my sites Web stops working due to changes in the basic components used?

    I would like to know how can I design my components to ensure that they stop working?

    Thanks in advance.

    Any updates to the SDK that you recompile against could potentially break the desired site behavior. Could be with the SDK components or ones you've written yourself. It's just the nature of software development. Testing is the key.

  • SRM with migration of replication of storage to new site 1: n

    Hello

    We have 2 sites, site A and site B. We have a few virtual machines to the site are protected & DR configured to site B, with storage replication & vice versa.

    Now, we want to add 2 other sites, the site C & d site.

    1 set up replication of storage between site A and site C for some virtual machines that are protected.

    2. turn the replication of storage between D & B site for some virtual machines protected site.

    3. recovery plan to test for C & D site with disturbing replication between A and B.

    Is this possible? Current version of vSphere is the 5.5 & SRM is 5.8

    Thank you

    Yes, it is possible to keep a few things in mind:

    -SRM requires a vCenter on each site (so you should have 4 total vCenters, 1 each on sites A, B, C & D)

    -SRM requires pairs of servers SRM for each link (so if B C & D are connected to A, you should have a total of 6 servers RS, 3 a and 1 b, C & D)

    -Each virtual machine can only be protected by a single pair of SRM Server (so you can't protect a machine virtual from A to C if it is already protected from A to B in your example)

    -Each virtual machine can be replicated only once, visible to SRM (this is possible with certain suppliers of table alternatives to replicate a LUN to multiple destinations, that's fine when you use SRM as long as MRS. manages only a single replication)

  • The most used only a single line of site Web page because of new gear at top

    I used the "Awesome" my homepage page. It was my most used sites 8 on the 2 rows of 4. After the last update, I see 4 websites because the train at the top of the page all moves down and no longer has room for 2 rows. Y at - it a setting or something I can change to get the two rows to show once again?

    This page has a complicated construction, but you can use the custom style rules to change. In particular, you can leave the miniature box grow to occupy the total space available and, if necessary or desired, to have a scroll bar.

    I have not worked entirely what rules of style make the most sense, and not sure I will have time during the day today.

  • Using Firefox 26: since the PBS site altered, receive "year error has occurred... Please check if private browsing is OFF" continuously - private browsing is turned OFF.

    Have used Firefox several years to view the videos at video.pbs.org. Impossible to say which came first: upgrade to Firefox 26 or PBS change their Web site but I can view is no longer any video to the ADDRESS: video.pbs.org. As soon as this page is in place, the window of Message dialog with this text: "an error [sic] has occurred. For a better experience with this site, please check if private browsing is DISABLED. »

    If "OK" in the dialog box is hit, the window disappears, but reappears in a few seconds. Pressing 'OK' on four or five rehearsals of this screen message results in the message box reappear, but with a box line added with the text, "To prevent this page from creating additional dialog boxes." By selecting the check box makes no difference in behavior. Dialog box continue reappear even if a video can be selected and will start to play until the dialog box appears. At this time, playback is suspended but resumed after to press 'OK '. Dialog box is displayed again about more than 4 seconds.

    I checked the Options confidentiality and subject: config that private browsing is not started automatically and no is not the default mode or auto started.

    I am retired, not having cable and live in an area where reception of a PBS television station is problematic so PBS watched a video is my primary TV entertainment option.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks to all of you who responded. Certainly, it shows the power of open-source software and knowledge of the crowd-sourced.

    suggestion of jscher2000 right of money. The preference of dom.storage.enabled was bold, and "false".

    Change to 'true' and reload video.pbs.org eliminates the error message.

    Once again, thanks a lot.
