Abstract:
In one embodiment, a system includes a processor and logic integrated with and/or executable by the processor, the logic being configured to cause the processor to access a snapshot of data stored on one or more DR clusters within a disaster recovery (DR) family only when the snapshot was made consistent with respect to data on one or more production clusters within the DR family before a time-zero, and perform DR testing using the snapshot, wherein the time-zero represents a time selected to simulate a disaster, wherein the DR family includes one or more DR clusters accessible to a DR host and the one or more production clusters accessible to a production host, and wherein the DR host is configured to replicate data from the one or more production clusters to the one or more DR clusters.
