CoBMR has been developed by Cristie Software in partnership with Cohesity, downloadable from Cohesity Helios, and integrated with the Cohesity System to make the BMR process efficient.

Trust your DR environment with Cristie recovery simulation

Adding CoBMR to your Cohesity environment allows recovery of operating systems, applications, user configuration and data to any point in time available in your Cohesity backup software. With our enhanced testing you can simulate system recovery with DR automation to verify that your recovery procedures will work when you need them most, and all without having to rely on manual intervention.

How CoBMR works

Learn more about CoBMR.

The combination of Cristie Recovery CoBMR and Cohesity DataProtect provides a high-performance, secure backup and recovery solution. Designed to safeguard your data against sophisticated cyber threats, it offers the most comprehensive policy-based protection for your cloud-native, SaaS, and traditional data sources with the added protection of complete system recovery, all from your native Cohesity DataProtect backups.

CoBMR also provides recovery assurance through simulated recoveries which can be scheduled to run at desired intervals. Each simulation job fully automates the creation of the recovered machine and then performs post-recovery test scripts to verify integrity and functionality.

Simulation schedules can be set up months in advance and planned so that an entire server infrastructure is tested over a specific timeframe. Recovery machines can be hosted within an isolated network and released after every simulation so that storage is not permanently required.

Detailed reporting highlights any problems encountered and provides an audit trail of results which can assist compliance reporting or help to verify internal disaster recovery performance.
