Topics:

Overview Prerequisites

Overview This guide provides information about how to deploy and configure Cloud Disaster Recovery in Dell EMC Dell EMC PowerProtect Data Manager to back up and run disaster recovery (DR) of virtual machines.

Cloud Disaster Recovery is integrated into PowerProtect Data Manager. Cloud DR supports Data Manager as an on-premises backup source. This feature enables users to protect VMs by uploading VM image backups to the public cloud object storage, and run automated DR operations on those copies. This feature provides DR orchestration capabilities also. The requirement of an offsite data center is eliminated as the users can add the cloud as another cost-effective DR site using Cloud DR. From Data Manager UI, you can configure Cloud DR to move backups to the cloud, and perform disaster recovery of these backups. Cloud DR in PowerProtect Data Manager supports Amazon Web Services (AWS), AWS GovCloud, Microsoft Azure, and Azure Government.

Cloud DR users can configure proxy settings in the Data Manager UI for communication between on premises sourced and public cloud. Both AWS and Azure supports proxy configuration.

Prerequisites The prerequisites for Cloud Disaster Recovery in PowerProtect Data Manager are as follows: Register the vCenter Server, where the PowerProtect Data Manager is deployed, in Asset Sources section of

Infrastructure pane.

NOTE: Alternatively, go to Settings > Hosting vCenter to register the vCenter server.

Configure an NTP server in the Systems section of the Settings menu. The Dell EMC Cloud DR Simple Support Matrix available at Dell EMC ELab Navigator ( https://elabnavigator.emc.com/eln/

elnhome) provides more information about various regions and supported operating systems. Dell EMC PowerProtect Data Manager has the following scale limitations:

5000 Virtual Machines 300 TB FE Capacity

Ensure that you observe the VM specifications (including CPU and memory) for Cloud DR. The latest requirements (for AWS, AWS GovCloud, Azure, and Azure Government) are listed in the Cloud Disaster Recovery Installation and Administration Guide.

Ensure that you understand and observe the prerequisite requirements for the cloud service that you are deploying. The latest prerequisites are listed in the Cloud Disaster Recovery Installation and Administration Guide.
