VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager (SRM) is an extension to VMware vCenter that provides end-to-end disaster recovery capabilities to VMware customers. SRM extends the features of virtual infrastructure to provide for rapid business continuity through partial or complete site failures.
SRM enables integration with array-based replication; SRM 5.0 also offers vSphere Replication (VR), a system that copies VMs from one host to another.
Site Recovery Manager Prerequisites
- A vCenter server at protected site
- A vCenter server at recovery site
- Preconfigured array-based replication between the protected site and the recovery site (if array-based replication will be used)
- Network configuration that allows TCP connectivity between SRM servers and vCenter Servers.
- An Oracle or Microsoft SQL server database that uses ODBC for connectivity in the protected site and in the recovery site.
- An SRM license installed with a sufficient number of per-virtual machine licenses to cover the systems protected in the environment.
