First Claim
1. An enterprise data backup and recovery system, comprising:
- a first network and a second network in communication through a third network;
the first network comprising;
a first processor layer;
a first storage area network layer in communication with the first processor layer; and
a first storage layer in communication with the first storage area network layer;
the second network comprising;
a second processor layer;
a second storage area network in communication with the second processor layer; and
a second storage layer in communication with the second storage are network layer;
wherein, the first and second storage layers are shared by the first and second networks via the third network; and
wherein, information stored in the first storage layer is transferred to the second storage layer via the third network under the control of the first processor layer.
