Hitachi Rapid Recovery

The Hitachi Rapid Recovery solution for S/390®-attached storage combines Hitachi NanoCopy™, Hitachi TrueCopy-S/390 Asynchronous™, and Hitachi ShadowImage™. This facility enables data to be copied from one set of S/390®-attached systems to another with complete transaction integrity and without disrupting user applications in any way. Open-systems platform data can be consolidated on the Lightning 9900™ with NanoCopy™ capability to recover their critical data very quickly following an outage.

Hitachi Resource Manager™ 9000

The Hitachi 7000/9000 Resource Manager™ is a comprehensive suite of management software that brings together Hitachi Graph-Track™, Hitachi Virtual Logical Volume Image (VLVI) Manager™, Hitachi FlashAccess Manager™, and Hitachi LUN Manager™ into one complete package.

Hitachi SANtinel™

The Hitachi SANtinel™ software controls host access to Hitachi Freedom Storage 7000E™ or Lightning 9900™ LUNs in open systems or SAN environments.

Hitachi ShadowImage™

The Hitachi ShadowImage™ is a firmware-based software copy utility that uses command-line-interfaces to create up to ten copies of a volume within one Lightning 9900™ system, or up to 20 across multiple Lightning 9900™ systems. Graphic or command-line interfaces control data replication and fast resynchronization of logical volumes. ShadowImage is available for open systems or S/390 environments. ShadowImage also works in concert with Hitachi TrueCopy-S/390 Asynchronous™ to provide additional copies in another system.

Hitachi TrueCopy

Hitachi TrueCopy provides synchronous or asynchronous remote copy capability for open system and S/390 computers. This allows remote copies over virtually unlimited distances. Operating systems that are supported include MVS, HP/UX, AIX, Sun Solaris™, Digital UNIX®, Sequent DYNIX/ptx®, SGI IRIX™, NCR®, UNIX SVR4®, Windows NT/2000®.

Hot site

An alternate facility that has the equipment and resources to recover the business functions affected by the occurrence of a disaster or business interruption. Hot sites may vary in type of facilities offered (such as data processing, communication, or any other critical business functions needing duplication). Location and size of the hot site will be proportional to the equipment and resources needed. Similar terms include backup site; recovery site; recovery center; and alternate processing site.
