An application protected by RecoverPoint has spanned onto a second XtremlO system.

When an application protected by RecoverPoint spans onto a second XtremIO system, it is necessary to ensure that the protection extends across both systems. The appropriate action in this scenario is to reconfigure the existing Consistency Group to be a Distributed Consistency Group.This allows for the inclusion of multiple storage systems under the same protection umbrella, ensuring that all parts of the application, even those that span multiple systems, are consistently protected1.

A Distributed Consistency Group in RecoverPoint is designed to maintain synchronous or asynchronous replication across different arrays, which may be geographically dispersed.This ensures that write operations are captured and replicated in a manner that maintains the consistency of the application data, regardless of the underlying storage system1.

For detailed guidance on configuring Distributed Consistency Groups and extending protection to additional storage systems, it is recommended to refer to the official Dell RecoverPoint documentation or contact Dell EMC support for assistance tailored to the specific configuration and version of the RecoverPoint system being used1.
