Even
if system backups are being performed, emails are often deleted from servers
during routine tape rotations.
Tape can also break, wear out and become demagnetized.
But what happens when some of those emails or files are needed in a lawsuit?
Or what if a regulatory agency asks for specific emails and you can’t produce
them?
The liabilities to an organization can be substantial.
OptiVault
is a new archival appliance that backs up and quickly recovers all emails
that are sent, received or deleted through Microsoft Exchange, including attachments.
It operates unobtrusively in the background of your Exchange server, reliably
backing up all emails on optical media.
When you need to recover emails from
any mailbox for any date range, OptiVault finds them on the appropriate backup
discs and restores them automatically.
Because it uses non-erasable, non-rewritable media that can be stored off-site, OptiVault provides true WORM (Write Once Read Many) compliance. This is a critical specification for publicly-held corporations, healthcare, brokerage and financial institutions and others who must meet the strict email, data and document retention requirements of Sarbanes-Oxley, SEC 17-a, HIPPA and a host of other government regulations.
WORM technology
is also highly desirable for any organization that needs to be able to quickly
and reliably retrieve data and files of all types without over-burdening primary
storage devices or media.
Experts agree that optical media is the most
rugged and reliable backup media available.
Its archival life is measured
in decades — not just years.
OptiVault is designed for use in a wide range
of environments that are already utilizing a variety of primary backup methods
such as tape or RAID. It interfaces to your server(s) through a single high-speed
USB 2.0 port.
An optional Rack Mount Kit allows installation
in a standard 19” 4U configuration.
The lockable front panel door keeps media
and the robotics safe and secure.
Using the included software from EMC
Dantz, emails and other critical files are automatically archived on optical
media according to customizable scripts.
Each disc is also printed
with serialization — an exclusive feature of OptiVault — for fast and easy
cataloging and retrieval.
With a capacity of up to 117 GB (234 GB compressed) per backup set, OptiVault has more than enough room for every email plus attachments generated by hundreds of typical users per month. You can archive and backup emails and other important files not only from the server, but also from networked client computers running Windows, Mac OS, Linux, Solaris and Netware.
With OptiVault,
there are: Quick and efficient searches. The included software from EMC
Dantz has the industry’s most sophisticated, high-speed indexing.
OptiVault’s
built-in robotics finds exactly which discs are needed to recover specific
emails, files and folders — even when a particular user’s data is on multiple
backup sets.
Fast, reliable recoveries. Optical media is a fast, random
access technology, allowing the quick searches and recoveries.
Compared to
other archival methods such as tape, you can recover mailboxes, messages and files
in just minutes instead of hours or days.
No more broken or damaged tapes. Optical media is highly robust and reliable. Industry studies show that up to 50% of backup tapes will fail when restoring your company’s critical data!
No
more tapes or cartridges to manually load. Advanced robotics automatically
load the backup media — day or night.
Depending upon the number of users,
mailboxes and files you are archiving, you may not need to replenish media for
several months.
Recoveries are also completely automatic.
Included
with OptiVault is EMC Dantz Retrospect, Single Server Edition with Retrospect
Agent for Exchange.
This powerful, award-winning software installs on any
Windows® XP/2000 PC or Windows 2000/2003 Server
and provides fully-automated,
hands-free backup. Using patented Progressive Backup technology, Retrospect
only backs up one copy of any targeted file – even if it appears in more than
one users’ mailbox or directory.
Operation is fast, because Retrospect
and OptiVault utilize the industry’s most advanced optical media packet-writing
technology.
This combination of software and hardware achieves exceptional
data transfer and write speeds of up to 60GB per hour.
Optional
software agents are available for backup of SQL and open files.
There’s
even a disaster-recovery agent available for recovery of your servers to
the most recent system state down to the “bare-metal” level. This saves an enormous
amount of time and effort in true disaster recovery situations versus other methods
such as tape.
