Centralized Backup Solution

The generic Backup Solution (GBS) delivers a Centralized backup mechanism to backup all elements in a Linux/Solaris/OpenVMS based server solution onto one centralized backup disk repository.

 

The backup is accessible and browsable for the operator on the Unix filesystem, no tape operations necessary for accessing the backup data.

GBS is an easy backup service, for operations, as it eliminates the hassle of tape backup by means of a permanent backup to disk. 

The permanent disk backup also eliminates the additional cost for tape hardware and licenses.

 

 

As an option for permanent tape backup, GBS can interface with EMC Networker or Symantec Netbackup backup clients.

Additionaly, the GBS backup server can function as a Networker/Netbackup server, directly interfacing with a tape autoloader.
