Disaster Recovery Using Device-Level Replication

The device-level replication approach requires dedicated device-level replication hardware and software (with commensurate higher costs). It ensures that state information held in the file system or database remains synchronized after replication to the DR site.

The data from the following parts of a TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM system must be replicated on a separate system such that all data sources are consistent.

  • TIBCO_HOME and CONFIG_HOME directories for the TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM installation. If the BPM configuration files are in a different location, you must replicate them as well.
  • TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM database
  • TIBCO ActiveMatrix Administrator database
  • TIBCO Enterprise Message Service server
  • Corporate LDAP system.

The method for replicating this data depends on your specific company practices and policies.

The following diagram shows an example of this type of configuration.
