Replicating vSphere's virtual machine to remote site's Cisco UCS by using EMC MirrorView

In this recipe, we will learn the concept of how to replicate vSphere's virtual machine to remote site's Cisco UCS Server using EMC MirrorView/S.

Getting ready

In this example, there are two datacenters, local and remote sites. Assume that these are installed one Cisco UCS 5108 Chassis with some Cisco UCS B200 M3 and two Cisco UCS 6248 Fabric Interconnect in each site. Each Fabric Interconnect is connected to two pairs of FC SAN Switches and two pairs of Ethernet LAN Switches. The EMC VNX5200 is connected to Cisco UCS B200 M3 through two FC SAN Switches. You have installed VMware vSphere 5.5 on each UCS B200 M3 in local boot. The hardware configuration of the remote site is same as the local site, and there are two pairs Inter-Switch Links (ISL): its the Dark Fibre on each FC Switch between both local and remote sites. The following diagram shows the details:

The following table lists the details of each...
