LENEXA, Kansas (January 9, 1992) -- Tallgrass Technologies Corporation
|
||
today announced shipment of its enhanced version of NetSECURE,
|
||
server-based NLM network backup solution.
|
||
|
||
About the Product
|
||
|
||
NetSECURE was designed to integrate directly into the NetWare operating
|
||
system to provide maximum performance, flexibility, and a high level of
|
||
security for the user. Centralized backup allows servers and workstations
|
||
to be accessed in both attended and unattended modes. NetSECURE takes full
|
||
advantage of the NetWare Loadable Module (NIM) capabilities to maximize
|
||
tape speed for both backup and restore. NetSECURE 4.0 supports Tallgrass'
|
||
entire line of SCSI-based storage systems, with capacities ranging from
|
||
250 MB to 2 GB.
|
||
|
||
New features of NetSECURE 4.0 include:
|
||
|
||
<EFBFBD> Auto Pilot - A feature set that includes the following:
|
||
|
||
<20> tape rotation maintains daily, weekly, monthly and
|
||
yearly tapes, producing a complete system backup
|
||
history.
|
||
|
||
<20> disk grooming removes files not accessed during
|
||
a specified period of time and generates a specified
|
||
number of copies in permanent storage.
|
||
|
||
<20> Quick Recover Restore allows full or partial recovery
|
||
automatically at any specified time.
|
||
|
||
<EFBFBD> Directory Mirroring - allows configuration to trim the directory of the
|
||
destination disk to match the source disk file structure. Files or
|
||
subdirectories found in the destination directory which do not appear in
|
||
the source directory can be deleted from the destination.
|
||
|
||
<EFBFBD> Tape Usage Database - tracks the amount of tape usage for each individual
|
||
cartridge. A log provides information on when the tape should be replaced
|
||
or when the drive should be serviced.
|
||
|
||
<EFBFBD> Archive Bit Backup - allows backup or archive operations to be performed
|
||
based on the status of the file's archive bit.
|
||
|
||
<EFBFBD> Daisy Chaining - allows for the cascading of backup operations across
|
||
multiple drives.
|
||
|
||

|
||
high speed SCSI storage solutions. It fits in with our goal of

architecting solutions that are specific to the users' needs and wants,"
