Supported NetApp replication topologies
The following scenarios describe the NetApp topologies that NetBackup Snapshot Manager for Data Center Replication supports. All begin with a snapshot of the data on the primary volume.
The snapshot can be replicated when you have a single target or CVO as the destination.
The snapshot can be replicated in a cascaded configuration. Note that NetApp CVO and Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP do not support cascaded relationships.
The snapshot can be replicated when you have multiple targets of the same or different type configured on the array.
The snapshot can be replicated in a fanout configuration. You can have a maximum of eight fan-out relationships from a single source volume.
The snapshot can be replicated once and then further replicated in a fan-out configuration.
The snapshot replications can fan out first and later cascade further.
