Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and processes to adjust replication operations in a distributed environment. A set of replicated data is received from a first appliance as a result of a replication operation. The replication operation is initiated by the first appliance and the set of replicated data includes a first timestamp. A write operation is performed to store the set of replicated data and a second timestamp is recorded. Recovery point information is generated based on the first timestamp and the second timestamp. The recovery point information is configured to be utilized in adjusting replication parameters of a subsequent replication operation.

Adjusting replication operations in a distributed environment

Various systems and methods for configuring and performing DR rehearsal operations. One method involves initiating a disaster recovery rehearsal for an application. The method involves generating a snapshot of a first storage element used by the application. The method also involves configuring a second storage element and starting an instance of the application. Starting the instance of the application utilizes the snapshot and the second storage element. Generating the snapshot, configuring the second storage element, and starting the instance of the application are performed in response to initiating the DR rehearsal.

Disaster recovery rehearsals

A computer-implemented method for disaster recovery from binary large objects may include (1) identifying a volume of data to be protected, (2) identifying a binary large object storage system, (3) replicating the volume to the binary large object storage system by writing to a binary large object file on the binary large object storage system to be readable as a consumable virtual disk that may represent the volume and (4) mounting the consumable virtual disk directly from the binary large object file. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
