Installation

Before beginning the installation, review the

Storage Mirroring Recover requirements

and

Installation and upgrade notes

. Use the installation instructions appropriate for the

type of workload you are protecting

l

Data, full-server, and application workloads—If you are protecting a data
workload, full-server workload, or an application workload, you can install using
the

standard installation program

or the

command-line automatic installation

process

.

l

Virtual workloads—You can also use the

standard installation program

or the

command-line automatic installation process

if you are protecting a virtual

workload, however, if your source and target are both virtual machines on an ESX
 server and you want to protect the host-level virtual disk files, you need to

install

Storage Mirroring Recover for Virtual Infrastructure

.

l

Clusters—If you are protecting a cluster, the installation will depend on the type of
cluster configuration you are using. For standard clusters with a shared SCSI disk,
use the

standard installation program

or use the

command-line automatic

installation process

. For a GeoCluster configuration, where data is stored on

volumes local to each node and replicated to each node in the cluster, you will
need to

configure your cluster appropriately and install Storage Mirroring Recover

.
