Backing Up Your Cluster The need for cluster backup is essential for both business-critical and non-business-critical data. As data becomes an increasingly valued company asset, it needs to be backed up on a regular basis. The process of backing up data will ensure that a company's assets are secure and available when a disaster strikes. The cluster itself provides a high degree of application availability but does not prevent a user from deleting or corrupting a file or set of files. Backing up a cluster's data will increase the overall level of data availability.
