RecoverPoint Fan-In/Fan-Out Design
Hello,
I was just wondering if the RecoverPoint design (attached JPG) is supported. I know version 4.0 supports fan-in/fan out, but I'm not so sure about clusters being paired up by multiple cluster (similar to cascading, but not really since data is not going from point A to point B and then to point C).
So here's the breakdown:
:Cluster A will replicate "XYZ" data to Cluster B. That same data will also replicate to Cluster C.
:Cluster A will replicate another set of data, "ABC", to Cluster D.
:Cluster D will replicate another set of data, "DEF" to Cluster C. That same set of data will also replicate to Cluster B.
I know replicating data from Cluster A to Cluster B, Cluster C, and Cluster D is supported, but I'm not so sure if I can replicate a different set of data from Cluster D to Cluster C and Cluster B. If the latter is not supported, I may opt to go with another set of cluster (vRPAs), Cluster E and Cluster F at that point.

This is supported. You can have to up 5 clusters connected in the same RP system. Various replication topologies are supported. In your case:
Cluster A is replicating same data to B & C ( CGs with 2 Remote copies)
Cluster A > D (CG with 1 remote copy)
Cluster D > C & B (same data, 1 CG with 2 Remote copies).
Refer to the RecoverPoint Multisite white paper
