3DC Multi-target
configuration

A configuration in which, in addition to the local site, a connection is established
between a nearby remote site and a distant remote site and Continuous Access
Synchronous and Continuous Access Journal are used to copy storage system
volumes among the three sites (called a

data center

). Such a configuration

provides support for disaster recovery through the use of data at the distant
remote site.
If the delta resync function is used between the nearby and distant remote sites,
journal-copying of only the minimum data required is performed following a
failure, which minimizes the recovery time.

backup (replica)
catalog

The backup catalog stores the replica history and the information pertaining to
generational backups. When a backup is performed, a new record that contains
information about the backup is created in the backup catalog. When restoring
data from a backup, Replication Manager references the information in the
backup catalog. Information stored in the backup catalog includes the following:
Backup start date and time
Backup source information
Backup destination information
