HP Matrix Operating Environment 7.2 Update 1 Infrastructure Orchestration User Guide

When Matrix recovery management and IO are installed on a CMS and recoverable services
have been configured, you can create DR protected IO services Recovery Groups using the Matrix
recovery management UI. For more information about using Matrix recovery management to
provide disaster protection for recoverable services, see the HP Matrix Operating Environment
Recovery Management User Guide available at http://www.hp.com/go/matrixoe/docs.
The file dr.properties (installed in the default location at ..\Program Files\HP\Matrix
infrastructure orchestration\conf) is used for mapping resources between the Primary
and Replica sites. The Matrix recovery management administrator sets the properties in this file.
To configure a recoverable IO service, click to select the Recoverable check box in the IO service
template in infrastructure orchestration designer.
A template containing these server group types can be marked recoverable:
• ESX and Hyper-V (with manual and automatic OS deployment, private and shared disks)
• ESX and Hyper-V linked servers
A template containing these server group types cannot be marked recoverable:
• Integrity VM virtual server groups
• Cloud server groups
• Physical server groups
In the infrastructure orchestration console Templates tab, the recoverable template will be marked
Enabled in the Recoverable column.
After creation or modification of a DR protected service, the Operations Orchestration workflow
engine notifies the DR administrator with instructions about the configuration tasks to be done in
Matrix recovery management.
