Why each option
The Cisco Unified Communications Manager (UCM) Disaster Recovery System (DRS) provides robust data backup and restore capabilities using an SFTP server.
DRS focuses on data backup and restoration, not on transparently presenting failover events to users, which is handled by other CUCM high-availability features.
The Disaster Recovery System (DRS) in Cisco UCM is specifically designed to perform scheduled backups of critical system data, including the database, configuration files, and call detail records, to an external SFTP server. This functionality allows for comprehensive restoration of the CUCM cluster in the event of a system failure or disaster.
DRS is for backing up and restoring the existing cluster's data, not for creating or managing clone servers.
While DRS backups enable recovery, its core purpose is data protection through backup and restore, not inherently speeding up the rebuilding process itself.
