AS/400 and iSeries Full Server Failover

Introduction:

The OffsiteDataSync AS/400 and iSeries Backup and DR Solution provides high availability for critical data in a production environment through real-time replication of critical files, objects and the entire operating system. The OffsiteDataSync AS/400 and iSeries Backup and DR platform is all-inclusive, handling replication of critical system objects (such as user profiles or spooled files), integrated file system (IFS) objects, and document library objects (DLOs).

Continuous Protection:

The OffsiteDataSync AS/400 Backup and DR Solution provides continuous data protection to critical database files and objects on a production system and sends the changes to an identical, secured, hot-site failover unit residing in a hardened datacenter facility. Changes to the appropriate dataset on the target system store duplicates of critical database files and objects from the production system allowing rapid & complete site failover.

Hot Failover & Failback:

Deployment of The OffsiteDataSync AS/400 Backup and DR solution provides not only a hot backup and failover AS/400 system but a seamless failback mechanism. If a production system becomes unavailable, its backup is prepared for users and in an identical manner production is returned to on-site operations. Seamless to end users, failover and failback features are integrated into our solution.

Disaster Recovery Testing:

For DR testing, replicated data can be viewed and manipulated on the backup system at any time without affecting a production environment and providing a means of verifying that the files and objects being replicated are what is defined to your configuration, ensuring survivability during and after a disaster event.

Key Benefits:

• Always on DR-solution for AS/400 & iSeries environments, creating platform redundancy during a DR event and eliminating idle system redundancy.
• No changes are required to clients in the event of a DR event.
