New Technologies in Retrospect 8
Separate management console and engine components The Retrospect engine, which performs all backup and restore operations, starts automatically at system boot and runs in the background as a root UNIX process. A computer running the Retrospect engine is referred to as a Retrospect server. The Retrospect application (referred to as the Retrospect console), which runs in the user space, provides management and monitoring of the Retrospect engine. “Headless” backups The Retrospect console app doesn’t need to be running for backups to occur. Management of multiple Retrospect servers The Retrospect console need not be installed on the same computer as the engine, and each console can connect to and manage multiple Retrospect engines. Multiple, simultaneous backup, copy, utility, and restore activities Each backup activity requires a unique destination Restores can be performed from Media Sets that are in-use for backups For activities to run in succession, assign them to the same activity thread.

More New Technologies in Retrospect 8
Staged Backups: D2D2D, D2D2T, D2D2Anything New Copy Media Set and Copy Backups scripts copy data from one or more Media Sets to another. Retrospect’s Smart Incremental technology only copies files not already present on the destination Media Set, providing single-instance storage and file-level deduplication. Restores can be performed directly from any Media Set. Disk Media Sets with grooming (replace Removable Disk sets) Direct- and network-attached storage volumes can be pooled together into logical containers for backup data. Administrator-defined quotas on a per-volume basis allow media to be shared with other applications. Optional grooming feature culls old data from the media, reclaiming space when needed (or scheduled) to allow ongoing backups. Public/Private Key client discovery and authentication Clients with the matching private key are discovered and logged-in automatically. Customizable views/reports are everywhere Sort, show/hide, reorganize, and save any list view.
