Capacity BackUp uses On/Off Capacity on Demand (CoD) capabilities to provide an off-site, disaster-recovery server.
The Capacity BackUp offering has a minimum set of active processors that can be used for any workload and a large number of inactive processors that can be activated using On/Off CoD in the event of a disaster. A specified number of no-charge On/Off CoD processor days is provided with Capacity BackUp.
For more information about On/Off CoD, see On/Off Capacity on Demand.
Make sure that you have prepared your server before continuing. For more information, see Preparing for Capacity on Demand.
You can test your Capacity BackUp activations while not incurring duplicate charges. For more information, see Testing your On/Off activations.
