A storage administrator has one production site and one remote site. The administrator configured the RecoverPoint with VNX(SE) cluster at both sites. The current environment
has two Consistency Groups configured with two copies each; one production copy and one remote copy. Based on the company's growing business requirements, the
administrator has been asked to keep a local copy of the production data.
Which action should occur in order to meet this requirement?
To meet the requirement of keeping a local copy of the production data in a RecoverPoint environment with VNX(SE) clusters, the administrator can add a local copy into the existing Consistency Group. This action does not require deleting and reconfiguring the existing Consistency Group or upgrading the license. Here are the steps:
Access Unisphere for RecoverPoint: Log into the Unisphere interface for RecoverPoint management.
Navigate to the Consistency Group: Find the Consistency Group that needs the local copy.
Add a Local Copy: Use the option to add a copy into the selected Consistency Group.
Configure the Local Copy: Specify the settings for the local copy, such as the Journal volume and RPO settings.
Apply Changes: Save the changes to implement the local replication.
Which RecoverPoint CLI command can be used to show a summarization of the errors and warnings for either one site or the entire RecoverPoint system?
The get_system_status command in the RecoverPoint CLI is used to provide a summary of the system's health, including any errors and warnings. This command can be executed to check the status of one site or the entire RecoverPoint system. The output includes information about the RecoverPoint Appliances (RPAs), Consistency Groups, and any issues that may need attention.
The process for using this command is as follows:
Access the CLI: Log into the RecoverPoint CLI using appropriate credentials.
Run the Command: Execute the get_system_status command to retrieve the system status.
Review the Summary: The command output will display a summarization of the system's health, including errors and warnings.
Take Action: Based on the summary, the administrator can take necessary actions to address any reported issues.
Based on the Consistency Group status shown in the exhibit, why is the local copy not connected to the production and remote copy?
When the ''Test a Copy'' wizard is in progress in a Dell RecoverPoint environment, it temporarily disconnects the local copy from the production and remote copies to allow testing of the data at a specific point in time without affecting the ongoing replication and production operations. The steps involved are:
Initiate Test a Copy: The administrator starts the ''Test a Copy'' wizard from the RecoverPoint management interface.
Disconnect Local Copy: The wizard disconnects the local copy from the production and remote copies to isolate it for testing.
Perform Testing: The administrator or users perform necessary tests on the local copy, which is now in an isolated state.
Reconnect Local Copy: Once testing is complete, the wizard will reconnect the local copy to resume normal replication and protection operations.
If a VPLEX distributed device is selected during the RecoverPoint Consistency Group Creation wizard, which option will appear?
When a VPLEX distributed device is selected during the RecoverPoint Consistency Group Creation wizard, the option to create a MetroPoint Consistency Group becomes available. This is because MetroPoint is a feature that leverages VPLEX distributed devices for enhanced data protection and disaster recovery capabilities. The steps involved in this process typically include:
Selecting the VPLEX distributed device: During the creation of a Consistency Group, you choose the VPLEX distributed device as the source of replication.
MetroPoint option appears: Once a VPLEX distributed device is selected, the wizard presents the option to create a MetroPoint Consistency Group.
Configuring the MetroPoint Consistency Group: If you choose to create a MetroPoint Consistency Group, you will then configure the necessary settings, such as replication mode and RPO (Recovery Point Objective).
What is determined by setting the priority level on a Consistency Group (CG)?
The priority level of a Consistency Group in Dell RecoverPoint is used to manage bandwidth allocation among multiple CGs that share the same primary RecoverPoint Appliance (RPA). Here's how it works:
Priority Level Setting: The priority level is set within the CG's settings, indicating its importance relative to other CGs.
Bandwidth Allocation: The higher the priority level, the more bandwidth is allocated to that CG when bandwidth is limited.
Resource Management: This setting helps ensure that critical CGs receive the necessary resources for replication, especially during peak times or when system resources are constrained.
