Integrated Backup Solutions for the Snap Server
The following backup solutions are preinstalled and/or customized for the Snap
Server:
BakBone Netvault
BakBone Netvault is a scalable, enterprise-wide backup solution for GuardianOS,
Windows, Linux, and UNIX operating systems with the following functionality:
•
Near-line storage
— The Snap Server manages backup jobs, locally storing the
backup images on disk using virtual tape library technology. Eight virtual drives
with up to 100GB capacity (total) are supported. (Additional capacity up to 1.1 TB
can be added with additional licenses.)
•
Direct-attached storage
— Data from up to five clients are backed up to a
standalone, SCSI-attached tape device attached to a Snap Server. Supports up to
four tape drives.
Most Snap Servers ship with BakBone’s NetVault server software preinstalled with
a Workgroup Server license. This license supports backup and recovery of data to
the Snap Server from up to 5 heterogeneous clients. (Additional clients can be
added with optional licenses.)
Note
Snap Servers 110 and 210 require an additional license to support NetVault.
For additional information on installing and configuring NetVault, see the
documentation included with the NetVault CD that shipped with your Snap Server.

Management screen by using the
