Business Challenges

Arthan Finance required a solution to automatically update the IP address of its recovered database VM within the configuration file of its application VM. This critical step was necessary for seamless application functionality after a disaster recovery event.

Datamotive’s EasyHybridDR: Highlights

Arthan Finance leveraged Datamotive EasyHybridDR's orchestration capabilities to automate this crucial task. With plan-level post-recovery orchestration functionality, we created a custom script that:

  • Accesses the recovered database VM's new IP address.
  • Connects to the application VM.
  • Locates the application configuration file.
  • Updates the database IP address within the configuration file.

  • Automated application configuration: The script automates the critical task of updating the application configuration file, eliminating manual intervention and reducing the risk of human error.
  • Improved recovery speed: Automating this step significantly accelerates the overall recovery process.
  • Enhanced reliability: Ensures accurate and consistent application configuration after a disaster recovery event.
  • Streamlined operations: Enables single-click recovery for the entire business service, simplifying the DR process.

Conclusion

Datamotive EasyHybridDR's orchestration capabilities provided Arthan Finance with the flexibility to automate critical post-recovery tasks. By automating the application configuration update, Arthan Finance improved the efficiency and reliability of its disaster recovery operations, further strengthening its business resilience.
