My production cluster consists of an AFF-A400 HA pair and a FAS-8300 HA Pair running 9.13. I want to configure FabricPool to tier cold data from the A400 to the 8300. My understanding of how FabricPool works is that the actual data will be relocated to the S3 bucket on the 8300, but the metadata remains on the A400. This has me wondering how best to protect this data from a disaster.
I have another FAS-8300 HA pair at a remote data center. I assume I need to snapmirror both the FlexGroup vols on the A400 that are hosting the hot data and the FlexGroup vol on the 8300 that is hosting the S3 bucket. Is this correct? In the event that I had to fail over to my remote 8300, how would I bring the FabricPool data online?
