How
does your backup software COMPARE TO THIS?
|
|
|
|
Backs
Up to all NT Supported Tape and Disk Devices!
|
|
| Fastest
Windows NT backup software as tested by Communications Week and Windows
NT Magazines (June '99 Win100 Award). |
Image
backup and disaster recovery diskette option.
"Open
Shared"
files are automatically backed up with an open status entry written
to the backup report. |
|
"Disk-to-Disk"
backup option for fixed & removable disks including magneto
optical drives. Disk incremental with full tape backup provides
2nd level of data security for nightly unattended backups: exclusive
"Fault Tolerant" mode of operation.
Software
compression
feature for maximizing backup storage space on disk, magneto optical
and tape drives that do not offer hardware compression.
Disk
De-fragmentation option
(backup, verify, clear or reformat, and restore) for both attended
and unattended modes of operation.
Full
32bit multi-tasking,
multi-threaded program design for fast, efficient and reliable operation.
Network
security
is maintained through the use of Windows NT’s Service function and
an operator need not be left logged on to perform an unattended
backup.
Fully
featured "Scheduler"
module for launching unattended backups.
Scheduled
backups across the network can be monitored and administered using
the ULTRAVUE
Network Administration module.
Scheduled backups
can be dynamically created, enabled, disabled and deleted through
simple programming.
Dynamically connects
and disconnects client disk resources for network backup operations
during either attended or unattended backups.
Supports simultaneous
backup sessions on up to 32 output devices.
Reroutes
a backup to an alternate output device if the primary
device fails due to a media problem or hardware error.
Cascades
the backup in sequence to the next designated output device when
the media in each successive device becomes full.
Optional
tape duplication
module enables a mirror copy of an input tape or disk to be made
concurrently on up to 32 similar output devices. This option allows
creating a "morning after" backup copy for off-site storage, conversion
from one media format to another (4-8mm), or creation of multiple
software update copies. Works with most third party tape program
formats.
Autoloader
support
for sequential access mode of operation.
Optional autoloader
support for random access mode of operation.
Optional driver to
enable full 40gb capability for Quantum’s DLT4000.
Operators can easily
create and save reusable backup control sets for repetitive backup
operations.
Supports Full, Incremental,
Differential and Archive Bit logic for a flexible array of backup
strategies.
Automatic program
logic for including modified files from the "Begin of Day", "Begin
of Week", "Begin of Month" or the "Last ‘NN’ Days".
Allows prioritization
of the backup sequence. Strategic files, directories
and disks can be selected in a prioritized order for backup processing
to insure that critical
files are backed up first.
User exits are available
before and after each backup
operation.
Multiple backup operations can be chained together using this function
or the ULTRACOPY media duplication utility can be invoked after
the backup finishes.
User exits are available
before and after each backup
set. These
exits are designed to be used for the execution of command line
prompts of batch files, such as those required to open and close
a database application before and after backup.
Backup control sets
are ASCII files that can be optionally created or modified with
any standard text editor.
Backup control sets
can be dynamically created and run through the command line interface.
This allows backup sets to be programmatically created based on
real time variables derived prior to execution.
Automatic output media
verification option using industry standard 32bit CRC logic immediately
after attended or unattended backups.
Media verification
can be performed on a previous backup anytime to verify the media’s
integrity and confirm the ability to restore its files.
Every backup creates
a complete index (catalog) of files which is written to both the
output media (tape or disk) and to an online directory. The latter
allows file retrievals without first searching an output media for
its content.
Global
Search function
for locating files across indexes stored on disk. As an option,
the search can be limited to date(s) of backup.
Restores are performed
by either using the index located in the online disk directory or
by reading the backup media and retrieving the index
Option to invoke automatic
purging of backup indexes written to disk after "NNN" number of
days.
Restores
files to any disk with or without the original
directory structure.
Individual
registry files can be restored selectively.
This
feature simplifies hardware replacement by permitting the restoration
of specific registry files containing information such as shares
and permissions.
Fastest
possible tape positioning logic for file retrievals
(30-180 seconds, varies according to OEM specifications).
A separate report
is generated for each Backup, Restore and Verification operation
performed.
Media monitoring system
alerts the operator when a tape has exceeded a set number of uses.
This feature serves as a warning to replace a tape before it can
cause a backup to fail.
Media monitoring system
can be enabled to either prohibit or warn when the re-use of an
unexpired output target is attempted. The prohibition feature will
prevent accidental over-write operations.
Media
monitoring system option to append, over-write or abort
when a scheduled backup discovers an unexpired tape mounted for
use.
Media
monitoring system requires an operator to correctly
enter a password when restoring files from password protected media.
Network
management option allows an operator to enable,
disable, modify or create a scheduled backup from any remote NT
Client.
Network
viewer module allows an operator to check the
backup status throughout the enterprise from any NT station (Windows
95 version scheduled for 1st quarter).
E-Mail interface via
MAPI allows both
the delivery of backup status reports to a wide range of E-Mail
platforms and can be used to initiate an alarm page to an after-hours
operator in the event of a failed backup.
Writes key backup
"way points" into the Application Event Log.
Optional
Microsoft SQL Agent which allows the backup of an open,
active online database (either full or incremental).
Optional Microsoft
Exchange Agent
which allows the backup of an open, active online database
(either full or incremental).
Comprehensive
user manual which
is provided as both online help and written documentation.

and Disk Catalog Management systems and much more... |
