    This RFE is critical for the development of our offerings, We are now considering alternative storage systems currently to get this functionality of many to one replication. 3:1 is a must to develop our solution for customers. We have multiple small customers with a small 1TB footprint that could replicate to one Storwize system for DR and development reasons, so a even higher number like 5:1 would improve our business case. This RFE dates 5 years back, so please upgrade the priority!

Storwize IP Replication

Merged
Storwize can support up to 3 replication relationships, but only one can be native IP The restriction is forcing the use of virtualization for replication. This RFE is to request support all 3 replication relationships with native IP.
