This is probably one of those questions without a single answer. Just wondering how people are breaking out their recovery plans and protection groups. We have about 150 VMs on about 50 400GB datastores. This is a newly completed installation with EMC recoverpoint. The sorage team just got all the consistency groups created and we are ready to go to the next step with SRM.
I am thinking about making at least one seperate recovery plan for the production SQL server VM. It is about 8 TB with about 30 databases. The question I have is; Put all the rest of the VMs in one big recovery plan?
If there is anyone out there who has lived through a real DR, or a realistic test I would especially like to hear what they think but all comments are welcome. Can a recovery plan be too big? Seems like a lot of eggs in one basket. I know in some caess there would be considerations from an applications standpoint. I am engaing the application engineers to get their input but just curious what others experiences are....
Thanks in advance for any comments.
