Sun Storage Availability Suite is marketed as Oracle's StorageTek[TM] Availability Suite (AVS) and incorporates two distinct modules :
- Remote Mirror (RM) also known as StoreEdge Network Data Replication (SNDR) or Remote Data Copy (RDC)
- Point-in-Time Copy (PiTC) also known as Instant Image (II)
Remote Mirror is used to replicate disks, disk slices and logical volumes across a network to a remote server.
Point-in-Time Copy is used to snapshot/copy disks, disk slices and logical volumes locally.
