Replication of deduplicated vault beetwen two NAS
Hello,
I need advice. We plan to provide customer with 1 backup server where we plan to install ABR management with Storage Node. It will be:
Dell Power Edge R320
Intel Xeon E5-2420 v2 2.20GHz, 15M Cache, 7.2GT/s QPI, Turbo, 6C , 80W, Max Mem 1600MHz 1 SR
48 GB of memory RDIMM 1600 Mhz
3x 600GB SAS 6Gb/s 15rpm
We want to perform deduplication of 50 servers using this backup server and for storage we have two NAS (we plan tu perform full and differentiall backups):
2 x QNAP TS-EC1279U-RP, 16GB RAM ECC
We also want to perfrom once in month backup for 100 workstations withoput using deduplication. I need advice ho to set replication of managed deduplicated vault from one NAS to second NAS. I have 2 ideas:
1 - by creating deduplicated vault on second nas and using replication function. I have plan to have only one storage node in this configuration. How such replication (deduplicated vault to deduplicated vault) works?
2 - by using incremental replication mechanism on QNAP. I'm not sure if in this case I must consider stopping ASN service to perform replication. Is this possible to use this mechanism?

Servers are working with similar OSes (Windows 2003 Server and 2008 Server) and applications so there may be similar data. Regarding replication, can I use replication feature on NAS to replicate vault data from one NAS to another NAS. QNAP has many replication feature itself.
