Unity MetroSync Duration

Hi there,

does anyone have any experiences on Unity MetroSync and the duration of a planned failover?

In the White Paper it states it is perfect for Load Balancing and Maintenance, but therefore it should failover really quick.

Can anybody confirm or give me some numbers?

 

I already got this as an answer, but maybe someone else has some other thoughts or experiences:

yes a planned failover is pretty quick

Its usually less than a minute but does depend on the config like number of file systems and outstanding I/Os that need to be synced

    Hi @zerothehero ,

    The only honest answer I can provide is the one you already have. It depends mostly on the complexity of the environment itself, so it will vary mostly based on that.

    Perhaps other users can post specific times, but make sure to ask for a rough idea of the environment size so you can use as a guide.

    well - how would you measure the failover time ?
