Disaster Recovery

Note The information described in this section does not apply to OMi in an Operations Bridge Suite container deployment. For information on this topic in a container environment, see the Operations Bridge Suite help.

You can set up and activate (when necessary) a disaster recovery system for your OMi system.

This section describes the basic principles and guidelines on how to set up a disaster recovery system, and the required steps to make the disaster recovery system OMi system become the new production OMi system.

The following diagram shows a distributed OMi environment without a failover system:

Note  

  • Disaster recovery involves manual steps in moving various configuration files and updates to the OMi database schemas. This procedure requires at least one OMi administrator and one database administrator, who is familiar with the OMi databases and schemas.

  • There are a number of different possible deployment and configurations for OMi. To validate that the disaster recovery scenario works in a particular environment, it should be thoroughly tested and documented. You should contact HPE Professional Services to ensure best practices are used in the design and failover workflow for any disaster recovery scenario.

  • A disaster recovery machine must use the same operating system and root directory as the original environment.
