Utilizing Hybrid iSCSI ports for Data Replication
The above diagram demonstrates how to utilize the iSCSI host ports for
remote data replication.
The two hybird subsystems reside within the same virtual pool but are
physically apart. You want to create a volume copy/mirror pair for data
protection, but without relying on the slow management LAN cable
connections. In such case, you may link the hybrid systems using iSCSI host
ports. If the distances between the enclosures are far, additional switches
might be required in between.
The illustration above demonstrates how you can enjoy the full benefits of
high-speed FC host link and management LAN connection, as well as a robust
link for data protection (volume copy/mirror).
The SANWatch software suite, on which you configure the volume copy/mirror
settings, will automatically detect the iSCSI data connection and will use it for
data replication.
