The design of VxRail with VMware SRM
In this section, we will discuss the planning and design of VxRail with VMware SRM. When you plan a DR solution for VxRail with VMware SRM, you need to consider and collect the following information:
- What are your RPO and RTO requirements for DR? These are both important factors you need to keep in mind while designing and executing a DR plan. Based on these two factors, you can choose VM replication or storage-based replication.
- The VxRail All-Flash and Hybrid nodes are both supported in this solution. For example, the source cluster can be the VxRail All-Flash cluster and the target cluster can be the VxRail Hybrid cluster.
- How many protected VMs are required for recovery at the recovery site? If the number of protected VMs is less than 75, you can choose the SRM Standard edition; otherwise, you need the SRM Enterprise edition.
- What is the total usable storage of protected VMs? You need to prepare the same usable storage capacity...
