Installing The Recovery Solution Components

The recovery solution described in this guide is based on the concept of a protected main site (host server or virtual

machine) connected to an identically configured recovery site ready to take over should the protected site become

unavailable. For this type of failover to be possible, both sites must have independent installations of the required

recovery solution components. The procedures in this section guide you through the installation of these solution

components on the protected site and the recovery site:

• A standalone database with a 32-bit connection to both vCenter Server and SRM Server

• vCenter Server 5.0

• vSphere Client 5.0

• vCenter Site Recovery Manager (SRM) 5.0

• Storage Replication Adapter (SRA) 5.1

NOTE: For more information, see Compatibility Requirements under Installation Prerequisites section of this

document.

About This Guide

This guide describes how to set up the recovery solution in vSphere, as well as how to configure certain SRM settings

required by SRA to discover the MD storage arrays and recognize Remote Replication connections. However, it does not

provide step-by-step instructions for installing VMware platforms. For complete installation information on these

platforms, see the following VMware documentation:

•

VMware Site Recovery Manager 5.0 Administration Guide

•

VMware vSphere 5.0 Installation and Setup Guide

Summary Of Tasks

These tasks represent a high-level view of the recovery solution installation and configuration process:

NOTE: Each of these tasks must be completed separately on both the protected and recovery sites.

1. Install a supported database server and configure 32-bit ODBC (Open Data Base Connectivity) connections.

2. Install vCenter Server 5.0.

3. Install vSphere Client 5.0.

4. Install SRM 5.0.

5. Install the SRM Plug-in (in vSphere).

6. Install SRA 5.1 on both vCenter SRM Servers.

7. In SRM, configure connections, set inventory mappings, assign datastores, configure array managers, create

protection groups and recovery plans.

8. Test failover or failback between protected and recovery sites.
