Next Generation Data Protection and Recovery Solution Den Ng
Agenda 1. 2. 3. Next Generation Data Protection Video TSM FastBack Overview + Value Proposition Deployment Scenario Visibility Control Automation
Pain Points. Are you running business-critical applications on Windows servers where fast recovery from failure is critical to your business? Do you have an automated way of getting your data off-site to provide for disaster recovery / resiliency? Do you have challenges with backup and recovery at remote sites due to a lack of skilled on-site IT resources? Do you currently spent too much on tapes and backup and recovery operation In terms of time, how much data can you afford to lose? < 1 hour or > 1 hour How long can you afford to be without access to your data? < 1 hour or > 1 hour
Tivoli Storage Manager FastBack is The Next Generation Data Protection Reduce the backup and recovery operation cost simple setup & automated Provide instant recovery capabilities (CDP & Snapshot) Granular Restore Individual file, mail, attachment, table, rows Automated data transfer to DR location challenging bandwidth BMR Support Dissimilar hardware Cost effective No additional license required for SAN, DB, Mail
The Problems TSM FastBack (FilesX) Solves Immediate recovery from any type of data loss & Point in Time Recovery User error (deleted files, folders) Software errors and virus attacks (corrupted databases) Hardware failure (disk or system crash) Disasters (lost local or regional facilities)
TSM FastBack Value Proposition Elimination of backup windows and manual backup/restore processes Eliminate tape in remote/branch office Disk-based block-level, incremental-forever data capture Instantly recover files, folders, volumes, and entire systems: Xpress Mount: drag-and-drop individual files from the backup repository Instant Restore: provides instant access to large volumes while they are restored in the background Bare Metal Recovery (BMR): bring up an OS volume on a dissimilar server in < 1 hour (realistically about 20minutes) Secure transfer of data between primary and Disaster Recovery sites Policy engine allows you to balance recovery requirements with the costs of storage
Block Level Incremental Forever backup process Production Disk Application or File server FastBack Server FastBack DR Server Low bandwidth Link Incremental backups are Block- Level, not file-level. Only the blocks that have changed since the last incremental snapshot are backed up Select what and when the incremental block-level changes move to the DR server

What TSM FastBack does? Protects Mission-Critical Applications and Files Protection Block-level, incremental-forever Windows Applications and Filesystems SQL, Exchange, Lotus, Oracle, DB2, Progress, SAP, MS-Sharepoint and more VMWare support Lightweight client No backup window required Policy-based capture schedule CDP on Demand Adaptive protection : Recovery Dial up the level of protection Granular any data object your application or fileserver File, folder, volume, system requires Point-in-Time rollback Instant Restore Instant access, background restore Recover Anywhere - At the branch, DR site, Data Center Cost Effective Eliminates the need for tape backup in the remote office
Value of Continuous Data Protection (CDP) True Block level CDP (I/O Based) Can achieve zero RPO Delta from (incremental) snapshots Set RPO per application Configurable protection periods Enabled per volume Intuitive GUI Remember CDP is a feature of the product, the product is more than CDP Protects Windows File system and Windows Applications Single backup solution offers: CDP Frequent Snapshot Scheduled Protection
Instant Recovery Improve SLA Instant Restore allows users to start using applications on the same disk to which the volume is being restored, while the restore operation is still in process. Typical Production Disk 1. Activate Instant Restore 2. Background Process restores blocks gradually 3. Write IOs are performed as usual 4. Read IOs from un-recovered areas create restore on demand 5. All other reads are performed as usual New Production Disk Production server TSM FastBack Restore Server New Production server
Mount Snapshots as a Virtual Volume Quickly mount any snapshot volume from the local or remote (replicated) repository, as a virtual volume on the server. Mount snapshots into virtual volumes, without actually restoring the files. Example use: You can mount virtual volume with a backed up database and recover anything you need without restoring the volume to disk Mount a Domino Notes.NSF on Notes client and selective recover attachments, emails etc Access from anywhere Select any saved snapshot Any point in time Mount as a Virtual Drive
TSM FastBack Architecture Central Vaulting of Backup Copies Backup consolidation Disaster ready Block-level, incremental forever Centralized backup to tape End-to-end security Encryption in transit Individual Virtual Vault for each office Scheduled, policy-based transfers Optimize WAN resources Fully Automated No manual intervention required Recover Anywhere At the branch, DR site, Data Center File or Volume restore Instant Restore Policy based DR protection XR-DR Repository Centralized Monitoring Data Center
FastBack Bare Machine Recovery FastBack supports Bare Machine Restores on both 32 and 64 bit operating systems and processors. Recovery from a corrupted operating system Support for dissimilar hardware Recover on a similar server, to a completely different server, or to a Virtual Machine
FastBack for Microsoft Exchange FastBack Restore of individual mailboxes or mail items (messages, contacts, calendar) via Virtual Volume Microsoft Exchange 2000 / 2003 / 2007 Exchange Server Exchange Database.edb files Data is extracted from.edb files in mounted snapshot Xpress Mount Xpress Restore backup Xchange Restore GUI Interface IMR Module Volume Snapshot.edb files GUI facilitates easy selection of items for restore Mailboxes or mail items can be viewed or copied without Exchange or FastBack servers Intact items can be restored from corrupted database backup
