Dell PowerProtect Cyber Recovery 19.14 Security Configuration Guide

Manual Cyber Recovery vault security

The DD system's Ethernet interface enables data to be replicated from the production system to the Cyber Recovery vault when a synchronization job is run.

Policies can be run manually or scheduled to synchronize regularly. Each synchronization job triggers the opening and closing of the Cyber Recovery vault through the DD replication Ethernet interface, as needed. On completion of the replication, the Cyber Recovery vaultDD system's replication Ethernet interface returns to a closed state.

The following table describes the connection states:

Table 1. Cyber Recovery connection states
Status	Icon	Description
Locked		All configured replication connections are closed because no replication is being performed. If a replication policy is run, the Cyber Recovery software opens the connection and changes the vault state to Unlocked.
Unlocked		One or more replication network connections are open because a replication is being performed. The state returns to Locked when the replication completes.
Secured		All replication network connections are secured because a security officer or admin user manually locked the connection due to a security breach. You cannot initiate any replication policy actions. When the Cyber Recovery vault is released and returns to the Locked state, you can then run replication policies.
Degraded		If there are multiple DD systems in the Cyber Recovery vault and one DD system is unable to communicate with the Cyber Recovery software, the vault status is Degraded. This scenario can occur if you change either the FQDN or the IP address of the DD system. An alert notifies you about the Cyber Recovery vault status.
Unknown		If there are multiple DD systems in the Cyber Recovery vault and all the DD systems are unable to communicate with the Cyber Recovery software, the vault status is Unknown. This scenario can occur if you do not create policies when you first install the Cyber Recovery software or if you change either the FQDNs or IP addresses of the DD systems. An alert notifies you about the Cyber Recovery vault status.
