Yuzuy's Failover and Failback function leverages Qumulo's Continuous Replication, which creates data copies in designated directories on a secondary Qumulo cluster.
In a disaster scenario or during planned downtime, Yuzuy automates the following:
- Failover: Yuzuy performs a series of actions on both the primary and secondary clusters. This includes redirecting client access to the secondary cluster and making the replicated data writable.
- Failback: When the primary cluster is back online, Yuzuy automates the process of switching back to the primary cluster. It offers options to replicate newly created data back to the primary cluster or discard it, providing flexibility in data management during recovery.
Yuzuy simplifies the failover/failback process by:
- Automating Complex Workflows: Handles all the necessary steps in the correct order, ensuring a smooth and reliable transition.
- Built-in Checks: Performs various checks throughout the process to ensure the integrity and consistency of data.
- Centralized Management: Provides a single interface to trigger and monitor the entire failover and failback operation.
