Recovery Plans
Orchestrator uses the failover and data recovery functionality provided by Veeam Backup & Replication to automate recovery actions. In addition, Orchestrator provides vSphere VM recovery orchestration based on replicated storage snapshots created on NetApp and HPE storage systems. For these purposes, Orchestrator offers 5 types of recovery plans:
- Replica plans — consist of vSphere VMs that should be failed over to replicas.
- CDP replica plans — consist of vSphere VMs that should be failed over to continuous data protection (CDP) replicas.
- Restore plans — consist of vSphere VM, Hyper-V VM or Veeam agent backups that should be recovered to a VMware vSphere or Microsoft Hyper-V environment.
- Storage plans — consist of VMs that store their files on vSphere datastores backed up by replicating NetApp and HPE storage systems.
- Cloud plans — consists of vSphere VM and Veeam agent backups that should be recovered to a Microsoft Azure cloud environment.
