Hi there,
Does anyone have any capacity/scalability limitations they can share regarding VFM (or StorageX) and its remote replication agents? I cannot seem to get any information from Network Appliance.
Scenario;
· Using VFM 5.5 to manage (and monitor) the replication of data from 1 filer to many (maybe 1000+) Windows 2003 servers.
· 1-way replication over many WAN links of varying capacity, latency etc. Effectively a "push" from filer to Windows servers.
· Windows servers have the remote replication agent installed.
· Data will be scheduled to transfer during specific times.
· Expected maximum of 1-2Gb of data to be baseline synchronisation.
· Expected <1mb per day changes to be replicated.
Has anyone implemented anything of this scale or larger?
Is there a maximum number of replications that a single VFM server & the replication agent infrastructure can manage? Is it a function of VFM/StorageX, Windows Server 2003, the filers or all the above?
Thanks in advance for any experiences,
Aaron
