SYSTEM FOR OFFLOADING DATA -ANALYSIS OVERHEAD FROM A PRIMARY SITE TO A REMOTE SITE

摘要

A method for reducing the data analysis overhead on a production system is disclosed herein. In one embodiment, such a method includes replicating production data from a primary site to a remote site. A control data set containing information for directing analysis of the production data is generated at the primary site and replicated to the remote site. At the remote site, the method includes analyzing the production data as directed by the control data set by making use of time on a CPU located at the remote site. Analysis may involve executing a diagnostic routine and/or generating a log file documenting the results of the analysis. A corresponding apparatus, system, and computer program product are also disclosed and claimed herein.
