5 INTRODUCTION To build and maintain competitiveness in a 24/7 global economy every business relies on the availability and reliability of their computer systems and especially the data they create and use to run their businesses. Small-to-medium businesses (SMBs) are no different they rely on the data in these critical systems to promote their business, sell and deliver their products, and to support their customers. If anything the availability and reliability of data is more critical for SMBs because they are less able to absorb the high costs and lost productivity the loss of critical business data represents. Losing even a single day worth of orders, or communications with customers, can seriously harm a small business. In the past, the cost of solutions for better data protection and recovery have been outside the reach of SMBs. With the availability of a software-based iscsi storage area networking solution from Rocket Division Software (StarWind), and a powerful yet easy to use data replication solution from NSI Software (Double- Take), businesses of every size can now easily and cost-effectively implement high availability data storage and protection solutions. This document contains detailed information regarding the installation and configuration of Rocket Division Software s StarWind iscsi storage networking solution, and NSI Software s replication engine Double-Take, to implement a consolidated storage solution with improved data protection and recoverability. This document explains the implementation and configuration of StarWind and Double-Take to provide basis consolidated storage and data replication/protection capabilities. Other documents are available to demonstrate more advanced configuration-specific iscsi storage and data replication solutions.
6 REFERENCE CONFIGURATION The diagram below illustrates typical StarWind-based iscsi storage network architecture with Double-Take data replication for data protection and recoverability. In the example shown, StarWind provides block level data storage services to the File, Exchange and SQL Servers. Double-Take provides automated data replication services between the Primary and Secondary StarWind Servers. A separate network segment is used for iscsi SAN traffic to ensure high-performance. Depending on data volumes and other performance parameters, use of the common network segment may be possible. In the diagram below, the Secondary StarWind Server stores a duplicated copy of the data residing on the Primary StarWind Server. Data is automatically and asynchronously replicated from the Primary to Secondary StarWind Server using Double-Take. Double-Take s highly efficient replication engine allows the Secondary StarWind Server to be located at the primary facility or at a remote disaster recovery site. In the event of the failure of the Primary StarWind Server the duplicate data maintained on the Secondary StarWind Server can be used to restore critical services.

15 Right-click on the replication set name. Select the Save option to save the replication set.
16 Drag and drop the replication set onto the Secondary StarWind Server.
17 The Connection Manager dialog should appear, as shown below. Ensure that the Route field uses the correct network adapter for replication traffic.
18 Select the One-to-One mapping option in order to ensure that Double-Take will create and store the StarWind Disks files in the same folder on the Secondary StarWind Server computer, as the primary server. Next, click the Connect button to start the mirroring and replication process.
19 The mirroring and replication process should begin, and after a short while when the process is complete the console should like the screen shot below.
20 CONFIGURE PRIMARY STARWIND SERVER Double-Take should now be configured on both the Primary and Secondary StarWind Servers. The steps below will guide you through the process of configuring StarWind on the Primary StarWind Server. At the end of this process, you will have created a StarWind Disk, which will automatically be replicated to the Secondary StarWind Server. NOTE: For the replication process to work, you must use file-based StarWind Disks. Launch the StarWind console by selecting Start->All Programs->Rocket Division Software->StarWind->StarWind. After the Starwind console is launched, its icon will appear in the system tray. Double click on the icon or single click it with the right mouse button and select the Start Management menu item from the popup menu.

38 DATA RECOVERY Recovering data from the Secondary StarWind Disk server can be accomplished in several ways: Recover Individual StarWind Disk. Restores an individual StarWind Disk or a subset of the StarWind Disks. Recover Entire StarWind Server by Replacement. Replaces the Primary StarWind Server with the Secondary StarWind Server. Recover Entire StarWind Server by Restoring. Restores all StarWind Disks data using the duplicate copy residing on the Secondary StarWind Server. Due to the size of the StarWind Disk files, which could exceed hundreds of gigabytes, it is highly recommended that you perform the recovering over a highspeed gigabit network. If the Secondary StarWind Server is located at a remote location, you may need to relocate the server to the primary site for recovery purposes. It is highly recommended that you run an integrity check tool such as chkdsk or eseutil on the restored StarWind Disk(s) to ensure data consistency after completing the restoration.
39 RECOVER INDIVIDUAL STARWIND DISK Individual StarWind Disks can be recovered by copying the StarWind Disk file from the Secondary StarWind Server back to the Primary StarWind Server. Take StarWind Disk Offline The first step of the restoring the StarWind Disk ensures that the disk is not being used by any iscsi initiator during the recovery process. These steps must be performed on the Primary StarWind Server. Launch the Start Management console. Select the target, which you wish to remove. Make sure the status of the StarWind Disk is Idle. If not you should disconnect target in the client-side initiator (see previous section for more information on the required steps).
40
41 Right click the target. Select Remove from the popup menu. Restore StarWind Disk File You may now copy the StarWind Disk file from the Secondary StarWind Server back to the Primary StarWind Server. Bring StarWind Disk Online These steps must be performed on the Primary StarWind Server.
42 Launch the Start Management console. Right click on localhost:3260. Select Add device.
43 In the wizard that appears, select Image File device (a brief description of each option is displayed in the right area of the wizard window). You can display the online help by clicking the Help button. Click the Next button to continue.
