Overview
Available now for HP 3000 users is NetWorker from Legato, a
client/server application that provides advanced storage management
capabilities to a heterogeneous environment of servers and desktop
computers.
Benefits
These are the key benefits of using NetWorker:
• Complete Solution for HP Environments
NetWorker is the most widely-implemented backup utility in open
system environments. It provides HP 3000 users with better
integration in a multiplatform environment, allowing them to back
up data to an UNIX, NT, or Netware server.
• Support for HP's DLT Library System
NetWorker is fully compatible with HP's Advanced DLT Library
System enabling all server and desktop data to be automatically
backed up, indexed, and policy-managed for either user-based file
recovery or complete disaster recovery.
• Centralized Enterprise Management
NetWorker's client/server architecture and centralized storage
model allow integration into network management frameworks.
Legato NetWorker integration modules allows SNMP-based
administration of NetWorker servers using HP OpenView, or
complete enterprise administration using HP OpenView
IT/Operations.
• Superior Protection for On-Line Databases
NetWorker supports on-line backup and restore operations for
Oracle, Informix, and application data of SAP R/3, Oracle Financials
and PeopleSoft HRMS.
