Local site infrastructure simplification solutions may be extended to one or more remote sites for enhanced data protection and disaster tolerance. The IBM System Storage SAN04B-R multiprotocol router provides Fibre Channel over IP and FCIP Tunneling Service for distance extension, which can enable cost-effective and manageable metro and global business continuity solutions. This extended distance connectivity can help create consolidated remote tape vaulting data protection plus metro mirror and global mirror disk-based, disaster-tolerant solutions.
The IBM System Storage SAN04B-R multiprotocol router can provide Fibre Channel FC-FC Routing Service, which allows the interconnection of multiple SAN islands without requiring that the separate fabrics be merged into a single large SAN. This capability can help create a tiered or extended enterprise SAN infrastructure without having to redesign or reconfigure the entire environment. |
