Live Volume use cases
103 Dell EMC SC Series: Synchronous Replication and Live Volume | CML1064
Operation: In an on-demand, operator-driven process, Live Volume can transparently move volumes from
one SC Series array to another. The applications operate continuously. This enables several options for
improved system operation:
Distribution of I/O workload
Distribution of storage
Distribution of front-end Ioad traffic
Reallocation of workload to match capabilities of heterogeneous systems
Cloud computing
11.6 Replay Manager and Live Volume
Replay Manager and Live Volume are mutually exclusive features that cannot be used together. If storage
hosts are split between data centers in a stretched cluster configuration using Live Volume, then Replay
Manager cannot be used to create application-consistent snapshots.
