Need a help for a planning step wise to create a 2 Site ( cloud computing -vSphere 5, ESXi 5 & vcenter)
Site 1: 6 ESXi 5 HV in a cluster, with DRS , vMotion (Vsphere Ent) & 10 Linux VM's (Private IP) ,
From firewall, 10 VM's will be linked to different public IP (web services will be used in VM's)
iSCSI or NFS based Storage will be used in vSphere 5 cluster
VM's: web server, database server, application server
Site 2 : 6 ESXi 5 HV in a cluster, with DRS, vMotion (Vsphere Ent) & 10 Linux VM's (Private IP)
From firewall, 10 VM's will be linked to different public IP (web services will be used in VM's)
iSCSI or NFS based Storage will be used in vSphere 5 cluster
VM's: web server, database server, application server
Now I have mutiple requirment
1.>what can I do to have a replica of site 1 on site 2
2.>Is it posssible to have a replica VM's on site 2 for failover use ? DR site
3.>Is it possible to have a Fault tolerance of VM 1 (site 1) on site 2, that might serve our purpose.
4.>If site 1 network is down , user can redirect to site 2 of same Vm's (web services)
My sole motive is to, user should now face a connection issue , if site 1 is down they should redirect to site 2 & (Site 1 & site 2 ) Vm's get replicated automatically.
Thanks.
