Continuous Replication of IBM Spectrum Scale data
This topic provides a brief description on replication of IBM Spectrum Scale™ data.
- Synchronous mirroring with GPFS replication
In a configuration utilizing GPFS™ replication, a single GPFS cluster is defined over three geographically-separate sites consisting of two production sites and a third tiebreaker site. One or more file systems are created, mounted, and accessed concurrently from the two active production sites. - Synchronous mirroring utilizing storage based replication
This topic describes synchronous mirroring utilizing storage-based replication. - Point In Time Copy of IBM Spectrum Scale data
Most storage systems provides functionality to make a point-in-time copy of data as an online backup mechanism. This function provides an instantaneous copy of the original data on the target disk, while the actual copy of data takes place asynchronously and is fully transparent to the user.
