We have two 6610X’s, each in it’s own group.  Any data on Group A is replicated to Group B.  Any data on Group B is replicated to Group A.  This is done to ensure data safely exists in opposing groups in event of failure (and in addition to our VM backups).

My question is: with 8 1TB volumes per group, can they ALL be replicated every X hours to destination group without causing significant storage bandwidth issues?  Do the EQL’s prioritize/throttle replication traffic at a lower level to ensure connected virtual hosts have highest priority?

The replication deltas are very small (~5-20GB) and happen almost immediately considering we’re using 10GBE Dell switching.

Thanks.
