Understanding asset types

On the Resiliency Platform console Assets page, assets are classified as follows.

Asset

Description

Resiliency Group

A group of applications or virtual machines under Resiliency Platform control. You can use Resiliency Platform to start and stop the resiliency group, as well as protect and manage it.

The Overview tab identifies whether or not resiliency groups are protected. An unprotected resiliency group is one that is configured to support monitoring and start and stop operations only. A protected resiliency group supports data recovery operations as well.

Virtual Business Service

A collection of resiliency groups logically grouped for a specific business purpose.

Unmanaged

An application or virtual machine that Resiliency Platform discovers in your environment, but that is not under Resiliency Platform management. You cannot use any Resiliency Platform features with these assets until they become a part of a resiliency group.
