AIR replication of catalogs and relational database

Zippo0526
Level 3

Hello experts,

We are in the process of installing StoreOnce 5100 appliances in our home site and in our DR site and the intention is that we can replicate backups and catalogs to the DR site using AIR.  We are setup currently to use different NBU domains.  I believe I have heard or read that AIR can strip the relational database from the catalogs so when they are imported NBU can use the DR configuration to do restores.  Is this automatic with replicating catalogs with AIR?  I hope I explained this senerio well enough.

Thanks,

Scott

Each image that is replicated to other NBU domain sends catalog info along with backup images. 
Once the replication is complete, the remote master imports the catalog info.
The remote master's catalog is now fully updated with catalog info of replicated images, ready to be restored to clients at remote site.
