Understanding the role of resiliency groups in disaster recovery operations
To perform disaster recovery (DR) operations on virtual machines or applications, they must be configured for disaster recovery as part of a resiliency group, which is the unit of management and control in Veritas Resiliency Platform.
In the configuration wizard for resiliency groups, you apply a service objective to a resiliency group. When you apply the recover hosts service objective, the wizard prompts you for the additional information required for Resiliency Platform to configure the resiliency group for disaster recovery operations.
After disaster recovery configuration on a resiliency group is complete, you can proceed with DR-specific tasks on the resiliency group, such as migrate and take over.
A Virtual Business Service (VBS) lets you further group these resiliency groups in a multi-tier grouping mechanism, and lets you perform controlled start, stop and recovery operations on these resiliency groups.
