Define How You Will Back Up Arcserve UDP Sessions

The method that you use to back up Arcserve UDP sessions is contingent upon your recovery time objective and the purpose of the Arcserve Backup backup sessions. You can use the following methods to back up Arcserve UDP sessions.

Arcserve UDP Backups

Consider the following aspects of Arcserve UDP backup operations:

• Use this method when you want to recover individual files and folders and recover data (Microsoft Exchange Server and Microsoft SQL Server) quickly at application level granularity.
• You install Arcserve UDP on the nodes that you want to protect.
• You add Arcserve UDP nodes to the Arcserve UDP Servers object in the Backup Manager Source tree.
• With this backup method, Arcserve Backup lets you create backup sessions from the full and incremental Arcserve UDP backup sessions. This type of backup lets Arcserve Backup back up the Arcserve UDP catalog files.
• You can use multistreaming to back up the Arcserve UDP full and incremental backup sessions to decrease the overall backup window. Multistreaming lets you transmit multiple streams of backup data in one job. When using multistreaming with incremental backups, the backup window is fast.
