replicate between netapp and EMC

[baijulal]

Posting for a customer.

Currently they replicate between site A to site B using snapmirror async (bith site netwall 3140s)

Now they want also to setup an additional replication from site A to site C and this site C is having a EMC storage.

Are there any replication software/external devices available to do this job?

Sorry for typo ....(both sites, NetApp FAS 3140s)

you mean are there any tools to migrate from NetApp to EMC? Not as far as I am aware.

[baijulal]

Yes any tool that can do periodic incemental updates etc....I agree I am also not aware, but just thought of cheking with the community.

You are maybe posting on the wrong forum mate

NetApp answer to this is the V-Series, its a gateway controller, allowing clients to get NetApp features while keeping current storage investment.

Have a look at http://www.netapp.com/us/products/storage-systems/v-series/

Hi,

What EMC storage do they have in site C, Symmetrix or Clariion? Didn't they get Replication Manager free with the storage ?

Anyhow wrt vseries,

for symmetrix: http://now.netapp.com/NOW/knowledge/docs/ontap/rel801/pdfs/V-Series/ig_emc_dmx.pdf

for Clariion: http://now.netapp.com/NOW/knowledge/docs/ontap/rel7261_vs/pdfs/V-Series/ig_emc_cx.pdf

But, as you say currently they already are replicating between site A and B, not sure whether this would help you.

Thanks,
