How can VERITAS NetBackup Enterprise Server solve my IT issues?
My business needs to: Deploy an enterprise class backup and recovery product Eliminate complexity and reduce training costs Support a wide variety of systems and architectures Leverage tape and/or disk for data protection Minimize or eliminate the backup window Create a Comprehensive data protection solution The following list are business reasons that would lead a prospect to consider a solution such a NetBackup Enterprise Server.

VERITAS NetBackup Architecture
7
NetBackup Storage Domain
Clients Media Server(s) Master Server NetBackup Enterprise Server is built upon a 3 tier architecture. *Note* Master & Media servers can be UNIX, Linux, Windows, or any combination. The first tier is the Master Server. The Master Server acts as the “brains” of NetBackup, controlling functions such as job scheduling, backup classes and maintaining the meta data such as tape media and detailed client backup data. The Master Server may be configured to back up and recover data. [RETURN] The second tier is the Media Server, which performs backup and recovery operations. The Media Server was designed to place the backup and recovery close to where the data is. For example, Media Servers can be deployed throughout the enterprise to backup other servers (UNIX, Windows, NetWare) and workstations (e.g. MAC, OS/2, Win98). Another popular use of Media Servers is where there is an application server running a large database application. This application server can become a NetBackup Media server so that local (direct SCSI attach or SAN attach to a tape device/library) backup and recovery can occur. This type of backup is the fastest method possible for larger amounts of data (e.g. several 100 gigabytes). [RETRUN] The third tier consists of the clients themselves that are backed up by the Media (and in some installations, Master) Servers. A “client” can be a UNIX, Linux, Windows or Novell NetWare server or one of many workstation O/S such as MAC OS, Win98 or OS/2. In addition, NetBackup supports OpenVMS clients and Linux clients running on IBM zSeries (OS/390) systems. The combination of a Master Server and one or more Media Server is called a storage domain. Unique Features to mention: 1) Automatic Media Server failover (ensures clients are protected in case the primary Media Server fails). 2) Server independent restore (ensures tapes can be restored via alternate media server).
8
NetBackup Architecture
Data center-class performance & reliability Core design based on three tier architecture TCP/IP or shared memory protocols for data transfer Tape multiplexing for backup & recovery write multiple streams of data concurrently to tape media – overcome performance limitations of slow networks Interleave multiple clients Interleave multiple file systems/databases Backup catalog designed for speed, reliability, and efficiency Server- and destination-independent restore NetBackup Enterprise Server also offers many features that set it apparent from the competition. NetBackup leverages both TC/IP and shared memory for data transfer. Being able to multiplex data to the same tape drive enables users to tune NetBackup and make up for slow networks or clients. NetBackup also can be enabled to provide multiple data streams. This will also increase backup and recovery performance. NetBackup’s catalog structure is extremely solid and continues to provide reliable information for even the largest IT shops. Also, NetBackup can restore data to machines that were not used to backup the data.
9
NetBackup GUI NetBackup has a robust java or native windows GUI (depending on the platform the server is installed on), plus offers very rich command line functionality. The picture above is the launch window from the NetBackup Administration Console on Windows. On the right side, you can see the wizard that will walk the user through the product step by step.
10
VERITAS NetBackup Key Benefits
11
Robust Instrumentation
Easy to implement, monitor and diagnose Activity monitor shows job progress Integrated scheduler with ability to set job priorities This screen shot helps demonstrate how relatively straightforward it is to configure and use NetBackup. On the right is a drill down into the attributes of a particular backup job. When configuring a backup policy, for example, you set parameters primarily within four areas – Attributes, Schedules, Clients, and Backup Selections – and you do not have to go to a different interface to perform configuration. Operators can easily step through one NetBackup operation after another or can simply use the wizard to help define the product’s operations.
12
Activity Monitor How easy is it for you to find out the status of your backups? Do you have to run SQL commands or scripts to discover this information? With NetBackup, it’s easy. NetBackup’s Activity Monitor displays the statuses of all backup, restore, archive, or duplication activities. [RETURN] Double-click on a particular job, or highlight the job and right-click, and you’ll get to more details. Within Detailed Status, NetBackup even provides a backup progression bar, to show you how far along in the backup you’ve gone.
13
Integrated Troubleshooter
Let’s face it – backups do fail. The question is – how easy is it for you to figure out why a backup was unsuccessful? Do you have to fumble through product manual after product manual? With NetBackup, we’ve integrated our troubleshooting guides into our graphical user interfaces for extremely quick access to information that may help you solve your problem. [RETURN] When you first go to the Troubleshooter, you’ll get detailed description of the problem. When you go to the Troubleshoot tab, [RETURN] you’ll get details about what steps you should try to alleviate the problem, without having to scan through scores of hardcopy manuals.

16
Extensive Client Support
Electronic client installation & upgrade NetBackup client NetBackup master server Note that in most companies the client tier usually represents the single largest group of systems to be protected. To simplify loading client software, NetBackup offers electronic client installation. [RETURN] A NetBackup master server may push client software out to remote systems over the network. Patches may also be distributed in a similar fashion. And, on Windows, in particular, an administrator may install the NetBackup master server, NetBackup media servers, NetBackup clients, or the NetBackup Administration Console from a single Windows system.
17
Ensuring service levels are attained
Backup Flexibility Ensuring service levels are attained Full, differential incremental, cumulative incremental, or synthetic backup Choice of protection media (disk, tape, and optical) Duplication of backup images Concurrent (“on-the-fly”) or post backup Ability to follow NFS and CIFS mount points Network bandwidth throttling True Image Recovery Restores data as it existed from last backup - no unintended restore of deleted data Client data compression NetBackup Enterprise Server provides a number of capabilities that make it extremely flexible and configurable: Backup types- configure full, differential incremental (backup since last backup- full or incremental), cumulative incremental (backup since last full), or synthetic backup. We’ll talk more about Synthetic Backup in the next few slides. Backups can be done to tape, disk, or some optical drives Duplication of tape media can be done with the core product in line with concurrent backups or post backup. We’ll talk more about this in a few slides. Backups can follow NFS mounts True Image Recovery- NetBackup is smart enough to track files that have been deleted during incremental backups so that restore operations do not restore deleted files Product offers client side compression to make data sizes smaller as they are sent across the network
18
Backup Flexibility Synthetic Backups Back up less data
Need only perform incremental backups moving forward, after initial full backup Produce a full backup or cumulative incremental, whether client is online or not, without copying data from the client again Less impact to NetBackup client Less impact to network May reduce the amount of tape media needed during backup and restore Backs up a unique file only once May increase restore performance Introduced with NetBackup 5.0, Synthetic Backups makes an interesting proposal – after your initial full file system backup, you need only perform incremental backups moving forward. How? Once initiated, a synthetic backup synthesizes a new full backup image or cumulative incremental backup image from the previous full backup and subsequent incremental backups. The processes involve only the NetBackup master server and media server and are entirely away from the associated client system(s). The resulting benefits are numerous – 1. Back up less data 2. Produce a full backup or cumulative incremental while client is not online 3. May reduce the amount of tape media needed during backup and restore 4. May increase restore performance
19
Backup Flexibility Synthetic Backups NetBackup Server NetBackup Client
1. Write full backup to tape 2. Write incremental backup to disk 3. Write incremental backup to disk NetBackup Client 4. Create synthetic full from original full plus incrementals; write to tape Disk Tape Let’s look at a common usage model for Synthetic Backup. On the left, you see a NetBackup client with file system data to be backed up. In the middle, you see a NetBackup server connected to both disk and tape. [RETURN] Initially, a traditional full backup of the file system is performed, and this full backup is sent to tape. Subsequent incrementals are backed up to disk. [RETURN] When a synthetic backup initiates [RETURN] NetBackup creates the new full backup image from the original full backup on tape plus the incrementals on disk, writing the newly synthesized full backup image to tape. Notice how a synthetic backup does not involve the NetBackup client in any way. Also, note that Synthetic Backups may utilize inputs (previous full and incremental backups) hosted on disk, on tape, or on a combination of disk and tape. The synthesized backup may then be written to disk or to tape.
20
Backup Flexibility Inline Copy
Create duplicates to tape or disk concurrently with primary backup Primary Backup Duplication Session Inline Copy Traditional Backup & Duplication Previously a feature of the optional VERITAS NetBackup Vault, Inline Copy is now a core feature of VERITAS NetBackup and has been enhanced specifically to be able to provide inline duplication to either disk or tape. Typically, duplication is itself a separate process, usually commencing after primary backups are completed. With Inline Copy, you can configure one or more duplication sessions to run concurrently with the primary backup. [RETURN] The benefits are time savings, since you do not have to run duplication as a separate session. Users may also be able derive benefits from better tape drive utilization. How? Post backup duplication may require a minimum of two tape drives – one for reading the data and one for writing the data. With Inline Copy, you may use as little as one tape drive – the target tape drive for duplication. This could mean less drive wear and tear. Primary Backup Duplication Session Time
21
Restore Flexibility Enhanced Disk Staging
Allows backups when tape drive resources are scarce Faster restores from disk-based images (no tape drive latency) NetBackup has always been able to back up to disk. And, with the prices of disk dropping and with service levels increasing, we’ve seen more companies start to consider disk-based data protection strategies usually complement existing tape-based practices. One of the most logical areas to insert disk-based protection is in the backup staging space. Primary backups are first directed to a disk “staging area”, and then, based on a preset schedule, the backups are relocated from disk to tape. In the background, expiration of images to free disk space is handled transparently. The graphic at the bottom right of the slide shows where one would configure a disk staging storage unit within a backup policy. While this functionality was automated through optional products in the recent past, it is now part of the core NetBackup feature set. Benefits include allowing backups when tape drive resources are scarce, or unavailable. Also, restoring from disk usually is faster than restoring from tape because you don’t have to deal with tape drive latency (mounting and unmounting media).
22
Restore Flexibility NetBackup Client NetBackup Server NetBackup Client
Backup 1: Store on disk and copy to tape on scheduled basis; expire disk images as disk fills Stream to tape NetBackup Client Restore: un-multiplexed restore from tape NetBackup Client Restore: Fast restore from disk if data still available there Tape Let’s look at how NetBackup disk staging works. [RETURN] Initially, primary backups are directed to a disk staging storage unit (dssu). The relocation from disk to tape will stream backup data to tape without the use of multiplexing. Expiring images on disk is handled automatically, as the disk staging storage unit fills. [RETURN] For a restore, if the images are still located on disk, then NetBackup will restore from disk. Otherwise, NetBackup will restore from tape. [RETURN]
23
Backup and Restore Flexibility
Checkpoint Restart Failed backup or restore job may be automatically restarted from last checkpoint Backup or restore job may be SUSPENDED, and then RESUMED at a later time Job SUSPENDED Job RESUMED When backup or restore jobs fail, you usually have to restart the job from the beginning. That means even though you may have completed backing up 95 GBs out of 100 GBs and encounter an error, you still may have to start from the beginning of the backup once again. Not a pleasant thought, unless you have Checkpoint Restart functionality. NetBackup supports Checkpoint Restart for both file system backup and file system restore. A failed backup or restore job may be automatically restarted from the last checkpoint performed. Furthermore, NetBackup supports suspending a backup job or restore job. [RETURN] The administrator may then resume the job at a later time. Job Start Job Finish

Enhanced Disaster Recovery
40
Business Issue- How can I use NetBackup for better DR efficiency?
NetBackup provides: “Cradle to Grave” services for tape media management Advanced reporting and automated functionality designed to protect business from local site loss. Rapid server recovery Not just the data on a server, but the recovery of the machine itself Consistent and automated methodology across platforms To help make disaster recovery more efficient, NetBackup offers options that manage offsite tape rotation or help speed server recovery across platforms. VERITAS NetBackup Vault offers “cradle to grave” services for tape media management, while VERITAS Bare Metal Restore teams with VERITAS NetBackup to automate and simplify server recovery.
41
NetBackup Vault NetBackup Vault coordinates tape rotation - the movement of NetBackup media to and from an offsite facility Reduces risk of error Optimizes the use of vendor offsite vault “slots” Vault profiles determine which backups are duplicated or sent offsite, and for how long they are retained Selectable retention for offsite copies Duplicate and de-multiplex for faster recovery Let’s talk about NetBackup Vault. Simply put, NetBackup Vault coordinates tape rotation, to and from an offsite facility. Today, it is not uncommon to find enterprises who are tracking their offsite tapes through manual techniques, perhaps using spreadsheets. NetBackup Vault helps address the challenges of error-prone manual techniques by automating processes, such as the ejection of duplicate tapes to be brought offsite, the tracking of offsite tapes and their associates slots, and the monitoring of tape retention periods, so that expired volumes may be brought back onsite for reuse.
42
NetBackup Vault Sending Tapes to the Vault
Glen Simon: Needs intro slide before NetBackup Vault Sending Tapes to the Vault VERITAS NetBackup Vault provides total lifecycle management of tape media. It can handle duplication, reporting, ejection, and pick list generation. This next two slides discuss the typical lifecycle a tape will go through when be managed by the NetBackup Vault option. This option provides true DR capabilities by having tapes offsite and accounted for a any point in time.

44
Additional Vault Capabilities
Reports Distribution, Inventory, Pick List, and Recovery Iron Mountain Electronic Format Report Automatic tape ejection notification Support for Closed Container vaulting VERITAS NetBackup Vault now offers support for closed containers. Vault partners, such as Iron Mountain, have long provided closed containers for customers to store duplicate media. Typically, the vault provider delivers the container to the customer, who loads the container with duplicate media. The vault provider would then retrieve the container from the customer and inventory the duplicate media logically as a container, rather than individual pieces of media. NetBackup Vault tracks and reports on media, the containers in which they reside, and the return dates of those media and containers.

Backup and Recovery for SAN and NAS Architectures
47
Business Issue- I need to protect data in a SAN or NAS environment
NetBackup provides: Support for diverse and scalable SAN configurations Advanced media management Ability to dynamically share tape drives with heterogeneous hosts Leverage tape drive and library costs (TCO) Ability to backup and recovery popular NAS devices with NDMP
48
NetBackup Shared Storage Option Dynamic Drive Sharing
LAN Servers Fibre Channel Loop / Fibre Channel Switch Bridge SCSI While NetBackup can support backup over a SAN natively, its abilities are further enhanced with an option known as SSO or Shared Storage Option. This option enables dynamic sharing of tape drives which reduces the total cost of ownership for the tape library and also the drives. Backups can be completed quickly because more tape drive resources are available and are not statically assigned to a specific server. This configuration also takes advantage of all the capabilities of Fibre channel and it can also support a variety of operating systems and SAN hardware components. Automated Tape Library Automated Tape Library
49
NetBackup for NDMP Flexible architecture
Broad platform and device support Support for Direct Access Restore (DAR) Local Backup 3-Way Backup Remote NDMP Backup LAN NDMP Hosts VERITAS NetBackup for NDMP Server NDMP backup is required for most high-end NAS (network-attached storage devices). NetBackup supports a large number of these devices from vendors, such as Network Appliance. With this agent, NetBackup also offer three configuration possibilities listed above. This flexibility allows the user to select which method makes the most sense for the business. NetBackup as supports DAR which enables faster restores by using file history information to better position tapes to the exact file needed for recovery. This slide illustrates the three techniques for backing up NDMP hosts. [RETURN] In local backup, NAS data is backed up to direct-attached tape devices. [RETURN] In 3-way Backup (also known as 3-way copy), NAS data on one filer is backed up over the network to tape devices connected to another filer. Finally, [RETURN] in remote NDMP, NAS data is backed up over the network to tape devices connected to a NetBackup media server. The NetBackup media server may be running Sun Solaris, Microsoft Windows NT, Windows 2000, or Windows Server Note that there are other NAS solutions that run on platforms, such as Microsoft Windows 2000 SAK, Microsoft Storage Server 2003, or Linux. In these cases, NetBackup leverages standard server or client backup, where supported. Please refer to the OS compatibility list for details. Tape Drive Automated Tape Library Tape Drive

Critical Business Data Is Exposed
60% of intellectual capital resides outside of the data center on employee desktops and laptops Protection from data threats is necessary for uninterrupted business Companies implement ad-hoc protection methods because stand alone products are are cumbersome and expensive Server Protection Desktop and Laptop Protection Disaster Recovery Plans Security/ Compliance Today’s IT managers are faced with a challenge when it comes to protecting the data on desktops and laptops. It becomes increasingly challenging to implement a reliable solution because data is growing at exponential rates and is on the move with busy executives, road warriors and remote or mobile offices. In the past protecting data on desktops and laptops was straight forward because all data was housed within the walls of the data center. Today companies are faced with the fact that as much as 60% of all critical or intellectual data resides with the employees and may or may not be protected. Loss of data or employee downtime from viruses, user error, theft or hardware failure can be crucial to a business success and therefore uninterrupted business becomes a requirement. Some companies try to put ad-hoc methods in place to try and protect data but are unsuccessful in enforcing such policies or maintaining the current-ness of the data. The majority of companies (our research shows 55%) have an ad-hoc policy of having users back up their data to a network share. In the list of items that IT needs to accomplish this becomes a checkbox without a permanent check while other items that are equally as important are given full attention.

What A Solution Should Do
Automate existing policy Users backup to a network share Integrate into existing IT infrastructure Lowering total cost of ownership Require low administrative maintenance and minimal IT interaction with employees Support the needs of desktop, laptop and home/remote office employees Enable users to initiate their own files restores To solve the IT problem and protect employee data corporations should implement a data protection strategy for desktops and laptops that leverages existing policy of backing up users to a network share. Also being able to build upon already existing infrastructure for server backup can lower the total cost of ownership and the administration needed to support the solution. In addition, being able to provide different methods of backup modes to support the wide range of users and having users able to restore their own files is important. [NEXT]

Introducing…. The Desktop and Laptop Option
Data Protection Provides continuous disk-based protection for the critical data on desktops and laptops Synchronization Keeps files on multiple desktops and laptops synchronized, allowing data to remain “in-place” where users need it Simple Administration Single, centralized console keeps administration to a minimum Profiles allow for simple management of user groups and backup parameters Enhanced .PST Handling Delta File Technology will only send the changes to the .pst on a daily basis at the file level, commanding greater efficiency To solve the IT need for a reliable data protection solution that encompasses the desktop and laptop data, VERITAS introduces the Desktop and Laptop Option. The Desktop and Laptop Option not only provides data protection in a new continuous mode that will protect users whether they are in the office or on the road but it introduces something new to this space, Synchronization. Synchronization allows users with multiple machines to synchronize their data in-place or where they need it; similar to how a Palm Pilot synchs with a computer. To help with the total cost of ownership the Desktop and Laptop Option utilizes existing hardware, storage and personnel, making the implementation and deployment of the solution fast and easy. A single console allows for at-a-glance management that the Administrator will need to view once a day to ensure operations are running smoothly. In addition, the Desktop and Laptop Option manages thousands of users via profiles, which allow the Administrator to segment users however they like (by workgroup or department for example), assigning backup parameters such as including/excluding files, setting maximum amount of storage used and schedules to ensure the operation runs smoothly. Lastly, we have enhanced our ability to handle .pst (personal Outlook folders, those sitting on the hard drive) files. Instead of treating the .pst as one large file it is considered a series of files or individual mail messages. On a daily basis the desktop and laptop option will only backup the changed mail messages. [NEXT]
