New UltraBac v7.0.2 Supports Backup Over FTP
Version 7.0.2 provides you the capability to use any FTP server or IBM's Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM)
as storage devices for UltraBac backup and restore operations.
The new UltraBac FTP Device allows an administrator to perform backup & restore operations to any FTP
server connected to the Internet by simply entering the FTP server's address as the backup path. UltraBac
then "pushes" a compressed data stream to the designated FTP server. From the FTP server, the backup can
then be copied to tape or disk using UltraBac's UltraCopy utility. This new feature will allow you to
easily store data offsite or centralize data from remote site backups.
The UltraBac Tivoli Storage Manager Device allows UltraBac to write data to a TSM server where Tivoli's
unique storage management features can be leveraged alongside UltraBac's rich client-level backup strengths.
Administrators taking advantage of the combined solution will use UltraBac to manage the administration of
the backup and restore processes while TSM manages the media the backups are written to. Use of TSM API's
guarantees a seamless integration with the TSM architecture, and has been certified TSM compliant by IBM.
