Hello,

 

I am using live sync with a commserve production on site1 and commserve dr on site 2

 

The commserve DR is performed on a nas share.

 

For now, only a test failover have peen performed.


We want to perform a production failover soon.

when we will initiate a production failover,  what about the new commserve DR jobs ? They will be written to the nas share right ? There will be no conflict about existing dr folder SET XXX ?

And What about the failback ?

 

thanks

Hi ​@BloopaAgain 


After a Production Failover or Failback, Disaster Recovery (DR) backups will continue to be written to the configured NAS share, generating new SET_XXX folders without any conflicts.

Each DR job creates a uniquely numbered folder (e.g., SET_001, SET_002, etc.) in the DR backup directory. Existing folders remain untouched, and new backups are stored in new SET folders. Older backups are retained or pruned based on the configured retention policy.
