Description
In today's business world, where application servers are operational 24 hours a
day, the data on these servers must be fully protected. With the rapid increase
in the amount of data on these servers, their critical business needs, and the
shrinking backup windows, traditional backup and restore methods may be reaching
their limits in meeting these challenging requirements. Snapshot operations can
help minimize the impact caused by backups and provide near instant restore
capabilities. Since a snapshot operation typically takes much less time than the time
for a tape backup, the window during which the data is being backed up can be
reduced. This helps facilitate more frequent backups and increase the flexibility of
backup scheduling and administration because the time spent for forward recovery
through transaction logs after a restore is minimized.
In addition, application data availability can be significantly improved due to the
reduction of the load on the production servers. The snapshots can be retained as
backups on local disk and, with optional integration with IBM Tivoli Storage Manager,
sent to Tivoli Storage Manager server storage pools.
Tivoli Storage FlashCopy Manager V2.1 utilizes storage snapshot capabilities to
provide high speed, low impact application data backup and restore functionality for
the application and storage environments. Automated policy-based management of
multiple snapshot backup versions, together with a simple and guided installation
and configuration process process, provide an easy to use and quick to deploy data
protection solution that can help meet the most stringent database recovery time
requirements.
Tivoli Storage FlashCopy Manager V2.1 supports clustered application environments
(Microsoft Cluster Server and Veritas Cluster Server) on Microsoft Windows and high
availability cluster multi-processing (HACMP
TM
) on IBM AIX and Microsoft Exchange
2007 continuous replication configurations {local continuous replication (LCR),
cluster continuous replication (CCR), and standby continuous replication (SCR)}.
