UBDR GOLD - PERFORM IMAGE OR FILE BACKUPS TO EVERY TYPE OF STORAGE DEVICE

UBDR Gold raises the bar in disaster recovery. UltraBac Disaster Recovery (UBDR) Gold uses snapshot, also referred to as image-based, backup and disaster recovery technology to provide lightning fast recovery for users of Windows servers and workstations. The software is compatible with every Windows NT, 2000, 2003, and XP operating system. UBDR Gold uses UltraBac's ability to perform image backups, along with a Windows based universal boot CD environment, to restore one or more disk partitions even when no operating system is available. UBDR Gold can be licensed for independent, stand-alone use, or it can be fully integrated with UltraBac's regular file-by-file backup and restore software.

Like UBDR Pro, Gold provides customers the same great features along with the ability to cold boot a machine and either perform image or file based backups to literally every type of storage device: SAN, NAS, UNC path, local disk, TSM, FTP, local/remote tape devices, and autoloaders. However, UBDR Gold differs significantly from Pro by not only providing optional agents for TSM, FTP, and autoloaders, but by giving users the ability to perform either image or file based backup and restore operations while booted from the UBDR Gold CD. This means an administrator can boot a failed machine and safely back up data partitions to any available disk, tape, or network location before allowing repair technicians free reign to potentially make a bad situation worse.

UBDR Gold is the first bare metal recovery utility that has integrated FTP into disaster recovery. With an FTP recovery, an image can be restored from a LAN, WAN, or the Internet. UBDR Gold also includes support for remote tape devices, tape libraries, and autoloaders.

Another first is Gold's ability to perform physical-to-virtual (P2V) disaster recoveries. This allows organizations to recover a server and virtually emulate it 100% in as little as 15 minutes. To perform a P2V recovery, simply create as many new virtual environments as required on your host virtual server. Then use UBDR Gold to boot into the recovery wizard. Recovering to a virtual environment is automatic, and requires no special setup, pre-configuration, or other considerations. The problems experienced when restoring to dissimilar hardware are eliminated.

Best of all, in cases of remote sites where network administrators may not be on hand, UBDR Gold can be 100 percent scripted. This allows restores to be programmed remotely so, in the event of an unbootable server, the recovery can be performed unassisted. Using a simple scripting file, the entire restore process can be as simple as booting from the CD and walking away. UBDR Gold will set up the network, restore the image to a pre-selected partition(s), and automatically reboot the machine when it is done. UBDR Gold eliminates having to walk someone through the recovery process - it is already done for you.

The UBDR Difference:

ORBiT Software and UltraBac Software specialize in backup and disaster recovery software. UBDR Pro and Gold are carefully designed to provide the utmost in server and workstation protection by minimizing excessive and costly downtime that usually accompanies a failed computer system. This revolutionary software technology allows scheduled backups of live machines with no required and inconvenient shutdowns. If and when an unbootable condition does occur, UBDR Pro or Gold can return the average machine to its operational status in 15 minutes or less.
