IBM Storage Defender® Connection Manager

From IBM Storage Defender Data Resiliency (Data Resiliency), the IBM Storage Defender Connection Manager (Connection Manager) is used to connect your local primary and secondary data environment and your IBM Storage Defender Data Protect cluster to Data Resiliency.

The Connection Manager is used to access your local environment, carry out inventory operations, and perform test recovery and recovery operations by using Data Resiliency.

The Connection Manager is provided in OVA and ISO format. OVA can be deployed in your local VMware vCenter and ISO can be deployed on bare metal server. Inside the Connection Manager, Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® is used as the operating system. The Connection Manager software is built to require less configuration to become active and get connected to your local resources and the Data Resiliency Service that runs in the cloud.
