This chapter contains information about configuring data replication with the remote replication feature of Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance software.
Replication actions can be configured on the appliance software to send updates manually, on a schedule, or continuously. The Oracle Solaris Cluster disaster recovery framework (formerly called Geographic Edition) supports the use of continuous mode for data replication for disaster-recovery environments.
During data replication, data from a primary appliance is copied to a backup or secondary appliance. The secondary site can be located at a geographically separated location from the primary site. This distance depends on the distance support that is available from your data replication product.
Before you can replicate data with the appliance software, you must be familiar with the Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance documentation and have the Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance product and the latest Oracle Solaris SRUs installed on your system. For information about configuring a Oracle ZFS Storage appliance, see the Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance product documentation.
