Ask the Expert: EMC Secure Remote Services (ESRS) – New Release, New Name, New Virtual Edition
Welcome to this EMC Ask the Expert session. On this occasion we'll answer questions on the latest ESRS release, new name and virtual edition.
ESRS has enabled secure remote monitoring and repair for customer EMC products since 2006. With the September launch of ESRS v3.02, the name has changed slightly (the last “S” now stands for “Services”) and the solution has been REDEFINED for the 3rd platform of IT. This virtual edition of ESRS is EMC’s new gold standard solution for remote connected services. ESRS v3.02 is a virtualized appliance that is more flexible than pervious ESRS configurations and built to scale with EMC’s portfolio of solutions and the growth of our customers. This Ask The Expert event is your opportunity to find out more about ESRS v3.02 by discussing:
- Technical and security questions
- Site planning activities
- Key differences between the virtual edition of ESRS and previous releases
- Integration with EMC Online Support
- Future roadmap for features and enhancements
To find out more about ESRS v3, read the recent Support Community blog and take a look at this new ESRS demo.
Here are your Subject Matter Experts:
This Event will take place from September 8 - 26, 2014.

The user ESRSConfig is not important so no changes would need to be made if the password was changed. If the password for OnAlert was changed and if the customer uses FTP in their environment and if they have any arrays which use FTP connect home, then those arrays would have to be reconfigured for connect home to use the new password.

I just read the release notes for OE for Block patch 74 (VNX2) and I stumbled on this new ESRS. The thing we are concerned about is security. We are ISO "security" certified (don't remember which number that is) and we have to make absolutely sure that nobody (EMC) is able to "hop" from the EMC endpoint (the faulty VNX for example) to another node in that subnet, or worse: on another subnet.
As soon as we have a dedicated "EMC subnet" we will definitely investigate ESRS and probably implement. Finally

Hello all,
I'm new to ESRS, but I wanted to make sure that this can be also configured for EMC software based products, such as NetWorker and DPA for example?
Thank you,
Carlos

ESRS 3.2 Virtual Edition will run on a virtual machine in VMware or Hyper-V.

ESRS is designed to monitor hardware and to provide a means to remote access those arrays in the event of trouble. It does not currently support software products like NetWorker or DPA.

Yes, Avamar is supported. See the Release Notes for all the supported arrays.

For those existing ESRS customers, will EMC drive migration to v3 or this is now customer driven?
