Power System Recovery

System recovery and replication for Power on Linux and AIX

Recovering a system to a new server typically involves restoring the OS from a tape or DVD bootable backup, which is time-consuming and prone to failure. In addition, the target server needs to closely match the specs of the failed server.

Cristie software enhances existing backup solutions including IBM Spectrum Protect, EMC NetWorker, and EMC Avamar by providing clear disaster recovery and business continuity benefits at minimal cost.

solution highlights

  • complete integration with native backup solutions running on AIX or Linux
  • removes the need for creating images of the OS on to tape or DVD, e.g. mksysb images
  • no additional backups or storage required
  • integrates with Power Systems architecture: tailor AIX LPARs or WPARs, and Linux LPARs, based on configuration of source machine at time of back-up
  • recover to multiple environments including dissimilar hardware, hypervisors and cloud
  • fast, automated, recovery simulation to test in advance if a server is recoverable
  • supports Little Endian and Big Endian architecture

Recovery is carried out at a file level and the software ensures that the recovered system is functionally identical to the source system at the point in time that the backup or snapshot was made.

A unique feature of the software is its integration with a number of enterprise third party backup products. This provides system recovery directly from the native backup and without the requirement to take another backup of the system files. The integrations include:

System recovery can be carried out from a backup of the source machine for DR protection or from a live running machine for machine migration purposes.
