Compared with the bankrupted enterprise, just few hours after 9.11 disaster,
world financial giant Morgan Stanley decided all the service will be resumed
next day. This is because the company has established data backup and
remote disaster recovery systems that protect the company's important data.
Disaster recovery ability overview
The main requirement of Disaster recovery ability
To ensure continuity of application system service
Protect the security and integrity of system data
The main influence factor of system stability and
data security
Operator misuse and data deleted by mistake
Server hardware failure
Operating system failure
Application system failure
Natural disasters, such as flood, fire, earthquake
The Indicator of Disaster Recovery
HA Software Configuration
No. Item Model Quantity
NIC NIC
HBA HBA
ZTE DR solution adapts dual OMC system for 1+1 backup, including
active server, active disc array, standby server and standby disc array.
Active server use dual fiber to connect with active disc array, and
standby server also use dual fiber to connect with standby disc array
DR System Architecture
All the relevant data saved in active disc array, such as Oracle database instance,
application data and other relevant data are replication to site B system in real time
through the VVR. VVR is Symantec local VCS module, it can implement Volume Copy
and snapshot.
Symantec local VCS can real-time monitor site A and site B system, including two
servers, the database services, application software, and VVR implement replication
services.

When network port failure, it will automatically switch to another device on standby to return to work
When HBA port failure, it will automatically switch to another device on standby to return to work
Networking device switch just need a few seconds, so it not influent active server application.
Server redundancy

Fail Over
Active Server Standby Server
IP/Fiber
When some disaster take place, active system in site A is failure, it will
automatically switch to the standby system in site B to continually provide
application service.
Because it need to switch all application, including Solaris system, Oracle DB
application, and ZTE EMS application, so it usually take 20 to 30 min for switch.

ZTE DR Solution supports manual switch mode and auto switch mode
Manual switch mode: User can manually switch active system application in site A to
standby system in site B, for example for updating active system or testing Disaster
Recovery function.
Auto switch mode: When some disaster take place in site A and active system
failure, it will automatically switch to standby system in site B to continually provide
application service.
DR Key Indicator
Switch time
Network switch time: a few seconds
Server switch time: 20 to 30 minutes
Disaster recovery time
Disaster recovery time mainly concern with system
installs time and Data reverse replication time.
System install including Solaris system install, ZTE U31
software install, and Oracle database software install, it
usually need 2.5 hours (without adopt backup and
restoration solution).
Data reverse replication time mainly concern with
network bandwidth between site A and site B, and the
data size.
DR Key Indicator
Assume data reverse replication must finish in 3 hours, the network bandwidth
and data size are described as following table.
The network bandwidth can be customized according to required recovery
time, the more network bandwidth, the fewer recovery time is needed.

Backup Server runs Symantec Netbackup software, and Backup Server also
usually adopted SUN Solaris Server.
Disk Array store U31 and Oracle data, and adopted dual fiber to connect U31
Server.
Tape library store all backup data, and also adopted dual fiber to connect
backup Server.

For example, in the case UMTS 10000 Cell, there is 1437GB data need
to be restored, and data transfer rate is 315 GB/H, so the restore time
can calculate as:
RTO=1437/315=4.56H
B&R Solution Advantages and Disadvantages
Advantages of ZTE B&R solution:
It can support OS backup, all system and software can
be fast restoration.
It can support system, application data, or Oracle
database on-line auto backup.
It can support to restore application data or Oracle
database from early recovery point
Disadvantages of ZTE B&R solution:
Not support HA function.
Not support DR function.
