By setting up a SnapMirror relationship between the SnapVault secondary
storage system and a SnapMirror destination storage system, NearStore system, or tape backup unit, you can provide backup and standby service or backup and restore protection for the SnapVault secondary storage system data.
- SnapMirror backup and standby service for SnapVault uses the SnapMirror
destination device as a standby device to be activated as an alternate
SnapVault secondary storage system if the original secondary storage system goes
down.
- SnapMirror backup and restore protection for SnapVault uses the
SnapMirror destination device as a source from which you can restore
backup data to a SnapVault secondary storage system that has suffered data
loss or corruption.
