Future of VCB?


Now that SRM has been released, do you think there's any future of VCB? Or will VCB still be supported for customers not requiring a full DR restore?

Re: Future of VCB?

Hi,

can you tell about info of SRM?

I think that VCB is not very "easy" to implement in a very large enviroment..

What is it SRM?

I would find a solution for enterprise site. Do you know Avamar (EMC), vRanger...can you tell something about your experience?


Thank in advance

Andrea.

Re: Future of VCB?
SRM is VMWware's new Site Recovery Manager. It's supposed to do entire Disaster Recovery from site to site using VI3. I think this is an entirely separate product from VCB, so I think VCB will continue to be supported, but I'm not sure. I've read up on Avamar, and they have pretty cool data de-duplication products, but are pricey. No experience on vRanger, sorry.
