New VxBlock Central Workflows

VxBlock Central documentation has been updated for the following VxBlock Central workflows:

Add Unity datastore to existing ESXi cluster - This workflow adds an existing LUN to a host in the Dell EMC Unity and Dell EMC Unity XT storage array, which is created as a datastore in VMware ESXi cluster.
Add XtremIO datastore to existing ESXi cluster - This workflow adds an existing LUN to an XtremIO initiator group, which is created as a datastore in VMware ESXi cluster.
Expand LUN and increase VMFS capacity of existing datastore for Dell EMC Unity, Dell EMC Unity XT, and XtremIO - This workflow helps expand the LUN and increases the corresponding VMFS datastore capacity in the VMware vSphere datastore cluster.
Remove VMFS datastore and associated LUN for Dell EMC Unity, Dell EMC Unity XT, and XtremIO - This workflow helps you remove a VMFS datastore and the associated LUN from an existing VMware vSphere datastore cluster.
Delete VMFS datastore and associated LUN for Dell EMC Unity, Dell EMC Unity XT, and XtremIO - This workflow helps you delete the VMFS datastore and underlying LUN.

See the Dell EMC VxBlock™ Central Workflow Automation Reference Guide for more information.

Backup and recovery

An Integrated Data Protection converged backup system solution uses one of the following arrangements of Dell EMC technology and components:

Avamar
Avamar with Data Domain
NetWorker with Data Domain

Child Topics

Converged backup systems components
Dell EMC has a series of products for backup and recovery design for Converged Systems. The correct product to use depends on specific customer requirements.
Avamar
Avamar provides a data backup and recovery solution with deduplication technology.
NetWorker
NetWorker is a software-based backup and recovery system that runs on virtual Microsoft Windows servers. NetWorker requires separate storage hardware as a backup target. A converged backup system with NetWorker uses Data Domain for storage.
Data Domain
Data Domain systems provide data storage targets for converged backup systems. Data Domain supports deduplication of backup data before writing it to storage, thus minimizing storage requirements by storing only unique data.
Data Domain Standalone
In a converged environment where backups using Avamar, NetWorker, or ProtectPoint are not wanted, the alternative is Data Domain Standalone.
Data Domain High Availability
Data Domain offers a high availability option which supports nearly all currently supported Data Domain features and functionality, and integrates with all Data Domain supported converged infrastructure systems.
Data Domain Virtual Edition in the Public Cloud
Data Domain Virtual Edition (DD VE) is a software-based Data Domain system that provides protection storage for any compatible data protection backup application. DD VE runs the same version of the Data Domain Operating System (DDOS) as its physical counterpart, so it supports many of the same features and functionalities such as DD Boost, deduplication, and Data Domain replication.
Dell EMC Cloud Disaster Recovery
The Dell EMC Cloud Disaster Recovery (CDR) solution integrates with an on-premise Avamar and Data Domain for copying Avamar VM image backups to the cloud on either the Amazon Web Services (AWS), AWS GovCloud, or Microsoft Azure cloud platform.
Converged backup system sizing
Recovery types
Converged backup systems built upon the combination of Avamar or NetWorker and Data Domain deliver several recovery types.
Replication of backup data to a second site
Converged backup systems support replication of backup data to a second site.
Cloud tier support
Converged backup systems support cloud tiering.
IP-based data backup
Backup data travels between a converged backup system and a Converged System over the IP links that directly connect the two systems. This backup data replicates to an alternate data center using the customer's IP infrastructure between the two sites. The result is a copy of critical data protected locally on the converged backup system and a duplicate copy of the data safely stored in a secondary location.
NDMP backup
Converged backup systems use network data management protocol backups to provide a backup and recovery solution for IP storage, such as Isilon, PowerMax/VMAX eNAS, VNX or VNXe products.
Enterprise deployment
A corporation with multiple branch offices might have multiple isolated backup systems. The best practice is to deploy a centrally-managed backup architecture. Converged backup systems also protect against site disasters by replicating the daily backups offsite. This solution is fast, network efficient, and eliminates the risks and costs associated with tape backups.
Use Oracle RMAN with converged backup systems
There are two common methods for using a converged backup system with Oracle databases.
ProtectPoint for VMAX3 and VMAX All Flash arrays with Data Domain
ProtectPoint for VMAX3 and VMAX All Flash arrays with Data Domain is a data protection solution. It integrates primary storage on a VMAX array with protection storage on a Data Domain system.
Cyber Recovery
Cyber Recovery (CR) integrates with the Integrated Data Protection backup solution to maintain mission-critical business data in a secure vault environment for data recovery. Use the management software to create writable copies for data validation and analytics.
Use Enterprise Hybrid Cloud with converged backup systems
The Enterprise Hybrid Cloud is a solution based on a defined reference architecture, which integrates products and services from Dell EMC and VMware. The solution is based on a number of Dell EMC technologies and the VMware vRealize Suite.
