Yosemite Backup Bare Metal Disaster Recovery Option
Your server crashed! Every administrator has suffered this catastrophe.
The traditional solution:
- Find all the necessary CDs
- Reinstall your OS (time about 2 hours if you are lucky)
- Reinstall all your applications (at least a few hours, maybe days)
- Reinstall your backup application (5 minutes for Yosemite Backup, maybe up to an hour or more with other backup programs)
- Restore your backup application's catalog from tape (could take hours or days)
- Restore your data from your backup application
Yosemite BMDR takes a "picture" of your system as it looks at the time of backup. It makes a bootable image on CD/DVD/Tape that allows you to recover your system with one simple reboot on the BMDR media. Best of all, you can just make this apart of every backup you do, so you never need to worry about having the latest "picture" (image) of your system.
The new solution:
- Connect the storage device to the system.
- Put your bootable media in the drive and reboot the system from that media. Yosemite Backup will do the rest.
Key Features:
- Image-based recovery restores service packs, applications, Operating System, and configuration
- Coverage for Microsoft Windows, Linux and Novell NetWare
- Support for servers and PCs
- Fewer steps to recovery than comparative solutions
