Features & Benefits
Performance
Feature Benefit
Unique, multitier architecture The first product of its kind, based on a scalable, distributed architecture of master server, media server, and client, enabling high-performance backup to direct-attached devices or SAN-attached devices
Disk Staging Disk staging can facilitate faster backups and restores since there is no tape device latency and non-multiplexed backup images can be used for faster recovery
VERITAS NetBackup™ Advanced Client Easy to use and configure client option that enables advanced backup and recovery methods for databases and file system data protection. The Advanced Client allows the user to optimize their configuration based on their environment's recovery time and backup speed requirements. New Network Appliance Snapshot™ and SnapRestore integration
Multiplexed Backup Ability to write and read multiple data streams to one or more tapes from one or more clients/servers in parallel for optimum performance
Parallel backup and restore Ability to write and read multiple data streams from one or more clients/servers to one or more tape devices for optimum performance
Scalable Image and Media Catalogs Distributed, small footprint catalog tracks backups and tape media based on a fast access, segmented structure that can easily be backed up, restored or replicated
Checkpoint/Restart Allows for a failed backup or recovery job to be resumed from the last checkpoint. If either a backup or recovery job fails, the issue causing the failure can be corrected or the job can be resumed from that last checkpoint rather than at the beginning of the job. This saves valuable time. Backup and recovery jobs can also be suspended and resumed as necessary
Synthetic Backups Synthetic backups allow for quick client restore from a single backup image. Synthetic backups consume less network bandwidth and decrease the impact on the application host
Robust Instrumentation
Feature Benefit
Backup Progression Bar Quickly determine how far a backup has progressed
Integrated Troubleshooting Guide Error explanations and recommended actions have been integrated into NetBackup interfaces to further simplify troubleshooting
Tape volume, drive and library viewing Report on tape utilization, drive configuration and more
Error message identification and categorization Easily diagnose problems without having to parse transaction logs
Browse historical reports Perform in-depth analysis of prior backup and restore activity
Enhanced Disaster Recovery
Feature Benefit
Integration with VERITAS NetBackup Bare Metal Restore™ Optional, complementary solution streamlines the recovery process, accelerating restores of Windows and UNIX servers
Inline Copy This feature enables the creation of multiple backup images, each with unique retention attributes, run either concurrently with the primary backup or after completion of the primary backup. For disk-to-disk and/or disk-to-tape backups
Nonproprietary tape format Ability to create TAR-compatible tapes, which may be restored (outside of NetBackup) utilizing native UNIX utilities
VERITAS NetBackup™ Vault Optional, integrated module for complete, automated offsite tape management, from the creation of duplicates to be brought offsite to the tracking of offsite media retention periods for determining tape reuse and more. Provides closed container tracking and reporting and Iron Mountain SecureSync integration
Alternate restoration methods Systematic, menu-driven procedures for restoring data to alternate paths or systems to simplify disaster recovery and recovery simulation
Mainframe-Strength Media Management
Feature Benefit
Automatic robotic/tape drive configuration Greatly reduces the time required to configure tape devices
Multihost library sharing The first product of its kind to offer the ability to share an automated tape library between heterogeneous systems---UNIX, Windows, Linux or Network Attached Storage (NAS)---for greater leverage of expensive tape resources
Broad tape device support Support for all leading tape device providers, including ADIC, Dell, Exabyte, HP, IBM, Overland Data, Qualstar, Quantum/ATL, Sony, Spectra Logic, StorageTek and Sun, enabling enterprises to select best-of-breed technologies for their environment
Advanced media and library capabilities Ability to leverage advanced functionality, including support for bar-code readers and configuration of "spillover" media volumes (scratch pools)
Dynamic tape drive sharing With the NetBackup Shared Storage Option, NetBackup virtualizes tape drive resources between heterogeneous systems, fostering greater efficiency in tape drive utilization for both backup and recovery
Flexible Implementation
Feature Benefit
NetBackup administration and configuration wizards Quickly and easily configure tape devices, media, storage units, backup policies and catalog backup, and for Oracle and DB2 databases, automatically generate backup and recovery scripts
Access Control NetBackup software offers users the flexibility to restrict or provide specific access levels to NetBackup software's administrative functionality. NetBackup access control allows administrators to define user groups and grant explicit functional and resource permissions. Access control can also be used with NetBackup software's add on agents and options.
Advanced scheduling Ability to configure automated backups for specific days within a month may be combined with standard frequency-based scheduling techniques for greater control over backup job initiation
Remote Administration Full backup and restore capabilities from any location including dial-up networks
Network Bandwidth Throttling Option to control NetBackup network utilization, helping to adjust job loads accordingly on corporate networks should backup jobs continue into production time
Job Prioritization Ability to set priorities for backups based on importance
Heterogeneous Support
Feature Benefit
NetWare Media Server Optional support for backing up large NetWare servers directly to tape devices
Broad platform support Support for all major UNIX platforms, Microsoft Windows, Linux and NetWare platforms, allowing enterprises to leverage their current infrastructure or choose best-of-breed technologies to handle their data protection requirements.
