Replicate applications to another site with NetApp Disaster Recovery

Contributors netapp-ahibbard amgrissino

Using NetApp Disaster Recovery, you can replicate VMware applications from your source site to a remote disaster recovery site in the cloud by using SnapMirror replication.

Tip After you create the disaster recovery plan, identify the recurrence in the wizard, and initiate a replication to a disaster recovery site, every 30 minutes NetApp Disaster Recovery verifies that the replication is actually occurring according to the plan. You can monitor the progress in the Job Monitor page.

Required NetApp Console role
The Super admin, Disaster recovery admin, or Disaster recovery failover admin role is required to perform this task. Learn about user roles and permissions in NetApp Disaster Recovery. Learn about NetApp Console access roles for all services.
