Using Virtualization, you can configure virtual machines (VMs) or instances for replication to one or more secondary sites and configure recovery groups for Commvault Cloud Auto recovery. Auto recovery uses backups of primary VMs to create destination VMs and keeps destination VMs updated using continued incremental backups.
The Commvault Cloud software includes multiple Auto Recovery solutions.

When to use
|
|
Orchestrated Recovery
|
-
This solution orchestrates one-click recovery of virtual machines using existing backups.
-
Applies to scenarios when you want to quickly recover VMs from backups.
-
The RPO that this solution uses is the frequency at which the backups are created.
|
|
Periodic Replication
|
-
This solution periodically creates and replicates new backups based on the frequency selected when creating a replication group.
-
You can orchestrate one-click recovery using the newly created and replicated backups. Applies to scenarios when you want to protect and recover VMs with reduced RPO at a higher frequency than compared to backup frequency.
-
It uses an RPO of 15 minutes or higher, which can be specified at the time of creating a replication group.
