Exchange Disaster Protection
The Disaster Recovery Option integrates with Mimosa NearPoint and provides a total solution for Exchange data protection; both local and remote configurations are supported. The Mimosa NearPoint server by itself is capable of restoring Exchange databases, Storage Groups, or the entire Exchange Server in the event of a hardware or software failure. The Disaster Recovery Option extends the capability of NearPoint and enables restoration of Exchange data to a standby Exchange Server, including restarting of Exchange services and remapping of mailboxes in an Active Directory Server. Administrators configure disaster recovery policies and perform pretests to verify that standby servers are configured accurately. When disaster strikes, "one click" is all it takes to initiate complete Exchange failover. Fast, automated recovery of Exchange, performed by NearPoint, minimizes loss of service and provides business continuity of critical Exchange services.
Management of the Disaster Recovery Option is simplified with wizard-driven menus that guide the setup and help define the failover policies. Configuration checks are performed during the setup process to ensure the accuracy of the environment. Should resources change, monitoring features of the Disaster Recovery Option will alert the administrator that something has been altered in the setup. The Disaster Recovery Option ensures that the disaster recovery setup is accurate and will perform reliably when disaster strikes.
