RecoverPoint Support
I am running RM 5.2.1 and have RecoverPoint 3.1.SP1 replicating SQL databases to a remote site using CRR and the Cisco SANTap fabric based splitter. My goal is to use RM to create the Bookmarks in RecoverPoint and occasionally mount a Bookmark for DR testing. I was able to successfully add the RPA to the RM console and configure a Job to create the bookmarks.
The job however failed with the following error:
102094 ERROR: Device 0326 was found in consistency group "MCSQL1_CG2", not consistency group "MCSQL1_CG3". Please ensure you have one RecoverPoint consistency group that contains all devices in your application.
So this tells me that RM requires the volumes to all belong to one Consistency Group. The problem is that I cannot use one Consistency Group. We were having performance issues about a year and a half ago and EMC was brought in to diagnose the issue. They determined that RecoverPoint was the bottleneck in our performance issues and the resolution was to break our volumes for the SQL database being replicated across three CGs. I have since discovered many other RecoverPoint users with the same challange.
So the question is, will RM support in the near future an Application Set for RecoverPoint with multiple Consistency Groups? This is a pretty big limitation as most highly transactional applications of significant size require splitting amongst multiple Consistency Groups.
