SAN as a Back-Up Device
Currently we are experiencing alot of problems with tape backup and I
have had some thoughts. Is it possible to purchase a SAN with a huge amount of disk space (say 1 terrabyte), then partition the SAN storage up and then backup the data from various servers to specific partition on the SAN. This would get rid of tapes and restoration of files would be rapid as no need to find tapes/load tape etc - and hopefully speed up backup times. now is this possible and would I need aditional software on the SAN or can I use my existing back up software to backup the data onto the SAN. This would be done over night. I have some experience of SAN. I am currently investigating the options and if this is possible. Any pointers to web sites would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.. |
