Replicating Data to an RDS Container Using NVBU
Using NVBU with the DR Series system, you can run optimized replication jobs. You can replicate data in backup RDS
containers on one DR Series system to a target RDS container that is on a different DR Series system. The two DR Series
systems containing the source and target containers and the NVBU server must be on the same subnet. Both the source
and target RDS containers must be added to the NVBU server as RDA devices. You can complete optimized replication
(or optimized duplication) of backups that you complete using NVBU.
NOTA: You cannot replicate RDS containers using the DR Series system native replication feature.
NOTA: The source or backup container and the target container must use the RDS protocol.
To replicate the data available on the backup RDS container to a target RDS container:
1.
In the NVBU Console, click Backup.
