Backup & Restore

Backup and restore using EqualLogic's snapshot functionality saves you time and increases productivity while providing better end-to-end data protection.

Problems Of Current Backup and Restore Solutions

To have a consistent, usable, secure copy of data to store long term, backup is required. But backup can be a burden - long backup windows reduce productivity, and backing up distributed servers with individual storage is cumbersome.

Server-side tape drives require more equipment, more staff, and more time; LAN-based backup degrades network performance. To restore data from backup format can take days, and without application coordination, data integrity is not assured.

EqualLogic Snapshots Save Time and Increase Availability

A superior solution is to backup data snapshots with EqualLogic PS Series arrays. With our affordable, automated iSCSI solution, you can backup from a central storage pool, easing the operational burden. Created manually or on a schedule, PS Series snapshots help to eliminate or reduce the backup window by taking instant point-in-time copies of consolidated data. Snapshot data are ready to use and available for instantaneous restore, and multiple snapshots provide multiple restore points.
