Open Replicator for Symmetrix

EMC Open Replicator for Symmetrix is a data migration and mobility application delivering non-disruptive, fast, simple, and open operation. Open Replicator uses the high performance Symmetrix array to move data to and from other EMC or third-party arrays using existing SAN/WAN infrastructure. 

With Federated Live Migration, all migrations to a Symmetrix VMAX system are completely non-disruptive at the storage and host/application level. For organizations using virtual and thin technologies, Open Replicator’s zero space reclaim feature quickly and easily reclaims a volume’s allocated but unused capacity during a migration.

Open Replicator for Symmetrix is:

High performance - uses the powerful EMC Symmetrix array as the movement engine

Highly flexible - push/pull data to/from EMC and third-party systems

Non-disruptive - migrations using FLM keep applications online throughout the entire migration

Virtualized - full support for thick-to-thin, thin-to-thin, and thick-to-thick migrations

Space saving - zero space reclaim gains back valuable allocated but unused capacity during migration
