Entry Level Disaster Recovery

Clone windows servers in real-time

This solution will replicate ALL of your Windows server, including the C: drive in real-time, to a backup server. The backup server can be on your LAN or in another location, across a WAN.

The replication traffic is minimised as only changes to data are replicated to the backup server after the initial synchronisation.

Recovery will require a manual procedure, where applications are brought up manually on the backup server manually when the active server goes down. Used for those environments where a certain amount of downtime is acceptable.

Benefits:

  • Real-Time replication ensures a completely up-to-date backup server is always available
  • Minimises recovery time and lost data
  • Rewind feature means that you can recover from lost data and corruptions
  • A good starting point if you require DR but do not have the budget for a fully fledged failover

LifeKeeper Solutions

We spoke to Open Minds and they recommended LifeKeeper from SteelEye Technology. It manages the system and, if the active node crashes, automatically fails over to the second node.
