Arcserve Backup provides the capability to backup all file systems and databases on a selected node. This feature can simplify backup job maintenance tasks.
For example, you can create a backup job for an entire node. You do not need to create individual jobs for the database files, directories, and drives on the node.

You can also restore an entire node in the same manner as you would perform any other restore job.
