OffsiteDR Seed Migration

Transferring the backup data from the local Backup Server to OffsiteDR for disaster recovery purpose via LAN or WAN is always a time-consuming process and also transferring of huge data by the network will consume a lot of bandwidth. Network interruption during data transfer will still consume a lot of your resource and make the disaster recovery setup even more complex. Using the Offsite seed migration of Vembu, the initial data transfer from backup server to OffsiteDR server can be migrated using a local storage medium, while the incremental data can be transferred through the LAN or WAN.This saves a lot of time and bandwidth required to transfer the data over a network.

OffsiteDR Seed Migration

How it works

  • Seed Migration of backup server data to Vembu OffsiteDR can be carried out by offsite copy configuration tab of Vembu BDR Server
  • Enabling Offsite seed will allow you to ship the initial data to a local storage medium and you can also specify mwhich data to be seeded to the local storage medium
  • After enabling the off-site seed, the backed up data from the local BDR server will be dumped to the secondary storage medium (USB/HDD)
  • Attaching the secondary storage medium to the OffsiteDR server will allow you to seed in the dumped data from the secondary storage medium to OffsiteDR server
  • After importing the initial seed to OffsiteDR server, the incremental backup data can be made to transfer directly from the BDR server to the OffsiteDR Server via LAN/WAN
