Features and description
Protect and Manage Data Assets
The proliferation of the Internet and business networks places a
growing emphasis on business continuity. Your data must be available
and accurate 24 x 7 or you will miss business opportunities and
lose revenue. With all the potential disasters in today’s world — fire,
flood, theft, hardware failure, human error, virus infection and so
on —every organization must be prepared.
Innovative, End-to-End Data Availability
ARCserve Backup from Computer Associates International,
Inc. (CA) ensures the protection and availability of critical business
data. In addressing the challenges of today’s dynamic business world,
ARCserve Backup uses award-winning, innovative technology
to deliver complete data protection across the enterprise.
ARCserve Backup provides several key benefits, including:
- Assured Protection of Business Assets. ARCserve
Backup provides powerful management tools to ensure complete
data protection, including multiple data verification methods and
integrated virus scanning and curing.
- Simplified Administration. ARCserve Backup automates
traditional data protection tasks. A web-enabled management
interface allows remote centralized management of storage
assets that are distributed throughout the enterprise. This central
point of control lowers operating expenses, reduces operating
errors and simplifies administration.
- Improved Performance. ARCserve Backup leverages
the SNIA standard Extended Copy Command to perform backup
and restores across SANs with minimal CPU use, improving performance
and freeing up CPU time for mission-critical tasks.
Distinctive Functionalities
- Powerful Disaster Recovery. The ARCserve
Disaster Recovery Option provides fast and easy disaster recovery
for Windows and NetWare environments, without the need to
re-install the operating system or ARCserve Backup
application.
- Powerful Command Line Interface. Common backup and
restore functions can be run directly from the command line, allowing
the inclusion of backup/restore functions within batch files and
other automation solutions, such as Unicenter.
- Extensive Reporting Capabilities. Accurate reporting helps you
make informed business decisions. Pre-defined reports include:
Job Report, Session Report, Session Detail Report, GFS Media
Prediction Report, Tape Media Report and Device Report. Users
can also customize reports to meet their individual needs.
- Cross-Platform Remote Management. Multiple backup jobs,
devices and databases can be managed from a single view, enabling
storage management from any Windows server or workstation.
- SAN Option. Tape libraries and other storage devices can be
shared on a Storage Area Network (SAN) by both NetWare and
Windows servers without logical partitions.
- Built-in Small Library Support. ARCserve Backup
reduces the cost of small library integration by supporting a tape
library with one drive and unlimited slots. The ARCserve Tape Library
Option enables the use of larger tape libraries.

heterogeneous client machines, including Windows desktops. In
addition, data protection is extended to a wide variety of systems,

complete virus protection through integrated eTrust
Antivirus technology that scans, detects and cures the files as they
