What is the best DR solution when the Dr. is in a different city 1000 kms far above a 20 MB link?

Our current DR is not appropriate if we want to use our server room in another city. I am concerned about the impact of the distance between the cities and the limited link would have on any DR solution.

I was thinking about fault tolerance, but I am concerned about the traffic. I have the same problem with Vmotion if necessary at an event of DR.

SRM is an option, but would be costly because of the nrequirement of another license of VC.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

I don't see how you intend to do without some type of shared replicated storage.

You can't assume that your main site will meet with ONLY a loss to the host where the storage subsystem mysteriously remains online.

You will spend a LOT of money with infrastructure reliable and robust enough to maintain replicas of mirror of your storage between locations or you'll have to decide an acceptable delta value that may exist between your primary and DR sites and (for a lack of a better term) 'ship' your images on a regular basis between different sites.

As someone else said management must decide the return on investment for this project and determine acceptable risk here.

  • What is the best solution when my external drive for Time Machine is full?

    Hello

    I use the latest version of Mac OS X on my iMac 27 ". I use a drive outside of 3 TB G-Tech for Time Machine backup. Due to my recently many RAW photo images, I have less 8% left storage on my external hard drive, so I'm trying to figure out next steps in what concerns the strategy of external storage and have the following questions:

    • When my external drive for Time Machine is full, it is my understanding that older backups on external hard drive will be deleted to make room for newer backups. If the oldest backups contained pictures (whose records have not changed since the time they are initially stored), then I guess that these photos will be removed from the external drive - correct?
    • If I had to replace my external drive for Time Machine with a new external drive which is as big or bigger than the one it replaces, what should I expect on the size of the initial backup on the new drive? I guess the size of the backup would be exactly equal to the current amount of storage used on my drive hard iMac - correct?
    • Would it not be possible to connect the external drive for Time Machine existing at a new Time Machine external drive so that when the original disk is full, the overflow will be automatically stored on the new external hard drive for Time Machine? (If feasible, it seems that this strategy would maximize my external storage capacity vs just replace external drives.)

    I realize that my first two questions are rather basic, but I don't want to make any false assumptions. The third idea is intriguing and I would like to know if this is a viable option.

    Thank you

    older files are starting to get deleted because the disk fills up then Yes, they went

    the backup drive should ideally be 4 times the capacity of your current drive, twice is good but has its limits. Also factor in what you store: a jpeg from the web and a raw photo file are the two images, the size of a is very different. If you work in high-resolution or large native files, or audio files (record pro, no music files) or video production twice the disk fills up very quickly. If you collect photos and JPEG and mp3 files or a handful of videos not so much is necessary.

    I would keep the old drive intact if you want to replace and start over with a new drive, if that's the plan. You have the old data, you can keep it somewhere safe and have a redundant backup which you can reconnect at any time to restore from. Let the new index drive itself with new data and take if from there, in the case otherwise you can copy the backup to the new drive and set the drive as the new source of backup but personally I wouldn't copy of the data, that's my preference, it may not be yours and that's fine.

  • What is the best solution for this idea...

    I have a task I'm trying to test and understand what would be the best solution for this, any recommendations would be appreciated.

    Devices at your fingertips:

    -2 ESXi hosts

    -1 iSCSI SAN OpenFiler (new just installed the app)

    2 ESXi hosts run a small amount of virtual machines that are all in the same domain.  I want to have a file server (or a repository somewhere) that houses a folder with easily accessible software (OS, Office, etc.) on the field.

    According to me, that if I made a virtual machine with a large hard drive and share the software, this would not be the best way because it would be dependent on the OS.  Someone has talked about doing a separte VMDK for it and then install it on the operating system on the virtual machine. This way I could always remove the and mount it somewhere else.

    It seems a bit weird to me that the software within this "shared folder" will also be sitting on the data store (if I create a virtual machine and need to use the OS/etc).  Not that doubles the space for the same software (in the comments, then the data store)?

    What is the best approach to make this action which can be accessed at the prompt (mostly windows) in the field?

    What is the best way to stay away the software doubles in action and on the data store?

    Please forgive me if I put interpereted your question.

    The problem you seem to face is that you must mount the ISOs of VMS software and physical systems that are on the field.

    (please, correct me if I'm wrong on this)

    If this is the case, then the best way to do would be to create sharing NFS on the openfiler, if you use openfiler to main databases also then he would be better for sharing this was separated to prevent the other help to be able to tamper with the VMDK and VMX files for your virtual machines.

    This could then be mounted in ESX to access the ISOs. While being easy to install on Linux and Windows machines to access the ISOs.

    If you have questions about NFS mounting in windows, so, this link may help

    http://sagehacks.WordPress.com/2009/01/21/HOWTO-mount-NFS-shares-under-Windows-7

    If you are needing to access the VMs software and it is mainly the downloading ISOs then th ISO directly to the data store is possible.

    This allows you to use ESX to mount the ISO on the virtual machine.

    On the point that the software will use double disk space when you install the software on a machine virtual car will be on the network share and the VMDK virtual machines in the data store. That's right, and that's by design.

    Each virtual machine under ESXI is 'independent' (http://www.vmware.com/virtualization/virtual-machine.html)

    This means that each virtual computer must have its own copy of the application.

    This perspective reflection of each virtual machine as a separate system of 'physical '. They interact with each other as if they were physical systems.

    Each VMDK resembles a physical hard disk. Being accessible (in most configurations) 1 VM at a time.

    So if you had a set of physical systems connected to a domain and I wanted to install an application on each one, then each would have its own local copy of the application. It's the same thing with virtual machines.

    However

    If you configure a set of physical machines so that you run the software from a network share. It is possible to do the same thing using virtual machines using the exactly the same configuration. However, the chiefs more associated to this are important in both cases.

  • DPS: Judge to use the parameter Raster or vector in the States of the objects when the majority of the page is a photo. What is the best setting for the overall performance?

    I am trying to decide whether to use the parameter Raster or vector in the States of the object when the majority of the screen is a picture (with a modest but important legend for children to read). The legend certainly makes it look more net as vector. But does the photo! The raster setting seems to make the lower-res images in comparison. In my first edition of my application, I thought that raster would be the best setting when the photo was the subject dominating the page. But now, after seeing how strong he looks like vector, (but with almost a refresh of the unacceptable time. Perhaps better on the latest iPad. Most of my readers/students in class will use iPad 2 s, which has a slower processor). I wonder if I should go through the trouble of changing States of photo objects that have the type as well to the vector. It doesn't seem to be as sensitive to a re - draw on the iPad 2 (non-retine)

    Is Filesize hit if I make about 1200 on these objects range from Raster to vector? (It is a huge, highly interactive history book, so I'm curious if acutally go to vector on these photos would reduce the size of the file) What is the best setting for the overall performance?

    I see the freeks screen outside for a bit if you try to pinch and zoom in a vector object (photo) vs raster. Which is disappointing. Does slow down load time/refreshment in frame, which is a little less. I also found that the drop shadows really bad that redraws effect in vector, almost vibrating in a slide show, for example. Thus, in cases where I need shadows, I'm sticking with Raster.

    All tips go ahead?

  • What is the best format of proxy to use when you work with S - Log in a linear colourspace?

    I worked with a few images from Sony F55 shot against a green screen. I work in a 16 bit s - rbg colourspace

    I did out of the source proxies that were photo-jpeg SBDAs, nice fast n.

    However, it is fixed the color values in the proxy with what looks like an s-curve that did eventually my overlay significantly different parameters (IE much more contrasted) when switching between the proxy and original.

    So, what would be the best way to go on the conversion of some sequences of newspapers-s to a fast proxy format without messing with settings main effects by such an amount of annoying. I can live with a small difference of course.

    Thanks in advance.

    Since you are seized, I work with the original film, not proxies and just deal with the problems of time.

    You will not get a precise key with a proxy... which is what you need.  Or you COULD work quickly and with no more worries with a proxy and get an incorrect key, but I doubt that is your goal.
