The JetStream DR Capacity Planning Tool (“CPT”) estimates required DR resources, defines protected domains, and shows consumption of resources by the protected VMs and DR appliances. It also generates several “protection plans” to automate various DR processes: Start Protection, Start Continuous Failover, On-demand Failover, and Failback.
- A graphical user interface is available that enables users to operate CPT interactively. Alternately, CPT can be automated using command line scripts. In addition to its planning and reporting functions, CPT can be used to execute multi-step CPT generated protection plans.
- CPT is run at the protected site and also at the recovery site. Functionality of CPT differs depending upon the site at which it is run and other specific conditions.
- CPT is distributed as a part of the JetStream Automation Toolkit OVA.
