    Hi,

    I would like to know when I am backing up to a Data Domain with VDP 6, what happens if I loose my VDP VM?

    Could I create a new VDP, configure it to use the same Data Domain and access the backups?

    Thanks in advance!

    Yes, backup data/restore points can be accessed by a new VDP appliance, but backup jobs and replication jobs would need to be recreated. I think this is discussed in VDP admin guide. If not, search for VDP Advanced Data Domain paper - it refers to VDP Advanced which was rolled into VDP 6.x so the info is still applicable.

    Thanks! I will try to test it on lab and be sure we can recover on our remote CPD.

    Thanks again
