Using the HP StorageWorks Backup sizing tool
Configure replication environment
Click on Backup calculators and then Design D2D/VLS replication over WAN to get started.
1. Configure the replication environment for 4 source appliances to 1 target appliance, commonly known as
Many to One replication. The replication window allowed is 12 hours; the size of the target device is initially
based on capacity. Because A and D, and B and C are identical sites we can choose three sites, enter the
data once for Sites A and Site B, then create two identical sites for D and C within the sizer tool.
2. For each Source and Target enter the backup sizes and rotation schemes. Source A and Target E are
shown as examples below.
Inputs for Source A are shown below; the inputs for Source D, which are identical, can also be added by
incrementing the number of similar sites in the drop-down list.
