vSphere Provides The Best Foundation For Disaster Recovery
Flexible Infrastructure
• Eliminate need for identical hardware across
sites
• Enable waterfalling of equipment to recovery site
Simple Application Protection
• Entire system – including application, OS,
and data – is stored as virtual machine files
• Entire system can be protected with data
protection tools
Cost-Efficient Infrastructure
• Reduced hardware requirements at recovery site
• Use recovery hardware to run low-priority apps
Encapsulation
Consolidation

Independence

vSphere Replication For Built-in, Simple Async Replication
Cost-Efficient
• Eliminate replication software
costs
• Support for heterogeneous
storage across sites
Simple Management
• Replicate at the individual virtual
machine level
• Manage replication directly from
vCenter
Powerful
• 15 Minutes-24 Hours RPOs
• Efficient network utilization
• Scale up to 500 virtual machines
per appliance

vCenter Site Recovery Manager Ensures Simple, Reliable DR
Simplify management of recovery and
migration plans
• Replace manual runbooks with centralized
recovery plans
• From weeks to minutes to set up new plan
Automate failover and migration
processes
• Reduce testing gap with frequent non-
disruptive testing
• Ensure automated failover and migration
• Automate failback processes
Broad Choice of Replication Options
• Built-in vSphere Replication
• Support for storage-based replication
Site Recovery Manager Complements vSphere to provide the simplest
and most reliable disaster protection and site migration for all applications

Thousands of VMware Customers Already Rely on SRM
Introduced in Q2’ 2008

Over 1 Million VMs protected
“If your organization is already taking advantage of virtualization,
then adding Site Recovery Manager to handle disaster recovery
is a no-brainer.”

What’s New In Site Recovery Manager 5.1?
Application-consistent replication
and Automated Failback with
vSphere Replication
Eliminate the need for a dedicated
failover site for disaster recovery
Increase automation and reliability
for site failovers and migration
SRM-based DR To The Cloud
Services
Benefits
Enable reliable disaster recovery
for SMBs
Support for vSphere Essentials+
environments
12. 12
Simplify failback process
Automate replication management
Eliminate need to set up new recovery plan
Streamline frequent bi-directional migrations
Automated Failback To Streamline Bi-Directional Migrations
Re-protect VMs from Site B to Site A
Reverse replication
Apply reverse resource mapping
Automate failover from Site B to Site A
Reverse original recovery plan
With SRM 5.1 Automated Failback is now
supported also with vSphere Replication

Planned Migrations For App Consistency & No Data Loss
Overview
Benefits
Two workflows can be applied to recovery plans:
DR failover
Planned migration
Planned migration ensures application
consistency and no data-loss during migration
Graceful shutdown of production VMs in
application consistent state
Data sync to complete replication of VMs
Recover fully replicated VMs
Better support for planned migrations
No loss of data during migration process
Recover ‘application-consistent’ VMs at
recovery site

Many Organizations Operate A Single Datacenter
• 50% of SMBs and over
20% of enterprises
have only one site
• Building a new DC for
DR is often too
expensive, forcing
customers to use
inefficient unreliable
tools or to skip DR all
together
