Sun Cluster 3.2 Release Notes for Solaris OS

HDS TrueCopy Campus Cluster

Sun Cluster-based campus clusters now support HDS TrueCopy controller-based replication, allowing for automated management of TrueCopy configurations. Sun Cluster software handles automatically and transparently the switch to the secondary campus site in case of failover, making this procedure less error-prone and improving the overall availability of the solution. This new remote data-replication infrastructure allows Sun Cluster software to support new configurations for customers who have been standardizing on specific replication infrastructure like TrueCopy, and for places where host-based replication is not a viable solution because of distance or application incompatibility.

This new combination brings improved availability and less complexity while lowering cost. Sun Cluster software can make use of existing TrueCopy customer replication infrastructure, limiting the need for additional replication solutions.
