1.3.2 What is the replication function?

The replication function of AdvancedCopy Manager provides operation management of replications by using the Advanced Copy function of ETERNUS Disk storage system.
As a result, the following replication operations become possible.

High-speed replication operation

The Advanced Copy function of ETERNUS Disk storage system is used to perform high-speed replication between volumes regardless of volume capacities. This function greatly reduces the impact of a replication operation.

Faster backups can be made by using update differential copies with the Advanced Copy function.

Consistency recovery function

The consistency recovery function resolves inconsistencies in the AdvancedCopy Manager replication management information caused by a system or other type of failure.

Main differences with backup function

The backup function provides policy and history management. These functions are not supported by the replication function.
The replication function replicates data between two volumes.
