Is it possible to use local SFTP servers with DRS for geo-redundant clusters?

[Nadav]

Hi everyone,

I'm using CUCM 11.x. When performing a DRS operation I have to choose from a single SFTP server to backup and restore.

The thing is that when these servers are geo-redundant, this can take a very long time (several hours) and each server is processed sequentially. Is it possible, or planned, to perform DRS much like how Prime Collaboration Deployment 11.x employs geographically distant SFTP servers?

Hi Nadav,

It won't be possible to select each server in a cluster even though u can select features like PLM,UCM,CDR and IMP

Please refer the link which says

"The Disaster Recovery System performs a cluster-level backup, which means that it collects backups for all servers in a Cisco Unified Communications Manager cluster to a central location and archives the backup data to physical storage device"
