NetWorker Support for OpenVMS: Enterprise-class Backup for OpenVMS in Heterogeneous Environments
Overview A major limitation of OpenVMS in heterogeneous systems environments has been the lack of integrated backup and archival solutions. Until now, no single solution has been available which could simultaneously meet the backup demands of OpenVMS, Windows, Unix and other system platforms. With the release of NetWorker Client for OpenVMS and NetWorker Storage Node for OpenVMS, LEGATO Systems has eliminated this difficulty. OpenVMS systems can now be backed up across a LAN, across a SAN or to locally attached storage while sharing resources with other Operating Systems. Regular backup and archival activities are scheduled and initiated by a central NetWorker Server, and users of OpenVMS systems can schedule ad hoc backups or recoveries of individual files, directories or file systems as necessary. LEGATO has taken great care to ensure that its OpenVMS products support important features of OpenVMS including the unique capabilities of the ODS-2 file system, OpenVMS clusters, and OpenVMS HSM. This paper discusses the integration of OpenVMS systems in a NetWorker environment.
