Backup and disaster recovery (DR) is difficult to manage, leaving many IT organizations to question whether their DR plan will work when disaster strikes. ShadowProtect ImageManager Enterprise provides new and innovative tools to deliver rapid disaster recovery, off-site replication, confirmation of backup integrity and simplified management of your backup image files.
ShadowProtect ImageManager Enterprise includes HeadStart Restore™ (HSR), allowing you to automate recovery and minimize downtime. With HSR, IT administrators create a system restore job that begins the recovery process right away – before it’s needed. The restore job is updated with incremental changes each time a backup job runs. In the event of a disaster, the restore is finalized, the server rebooted, and the recovery is completed in a few short minutes, rather than hours or even days. The recovery window is eliminated because recovery has already started – and is ongoing as server backups continue.
ShadowProtect ImageManager Enterprise allows you to automatically consolidate point-in-time backup image files on a daily, weekly and monthly basis for simplified management. This also allows you to reduce the amount of disk space required for backups. Automatic backup image verification and re-verification included in ShadowProtect ImageManager Enterprise ensures every backup is in a good state, should it be needed for system recovery.
For an additional level of protection, automatically send your backup images to an off-site location with the replication feature of ShadowProtect ImageManager Enterprise. Once replication is configured, backup images may be sent to one or multiple locations automatically. In the event of a catastrophic failure, you’re able to get your systems online quickly. This features also allows you to save backups to an off-site location for compliancy and archival requirements.
ShadowProtect ImageManager Enterprise also provides notification tools so you always know the status of your backup jobs and backup images. Set e-mail and SMTP configurations to track backup job success and failure automatically.
