2 Introducing the DR Series System The DR Series system is a high-performance, disk-based backup and recovery appliance that is simple to deploy and manage. NOTE: Unless otherwise noted, later references to "the system" or "DR Series system" are used interchangeably to represent the Dell DR Series system. Using Dell deduplication and compression algorithm technology, a DR Series system can achieve data reduction levels ranging from 10:1 to 15:1. This reduction in data results in less incremental storage needs and a smaller backup footprint. By taking advantage of deduplication and compression features and removing redundant data, the system delivers: • Fast, reliable backup and restore functionality. • Reduced media usage and power and cooling requirements. • Improved overall data protection and retention costs. The benefits of data deduplication can be extended across the enterprise-through the deduplicated replication functionality-to provide a complete backup solution for multi-site environments. The shorter Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) and attainable Recovery Point Objectives (RPO) are also assured as critical backup data remains on disk and online longer. Capital and administrative costs are diminished at the same time as internal service level agreements (SLAs) are more easily met. The DR Series system includes the following features: • Advanced data protection and disaster recovery • Two management interfaces, a command line interface (CLI) or a system graphical user interface (GUI) for the system software to manage storage containers • Wide variety of data backup installations and environments • A simple installation process that provides full, intuitive remote setup and management capabilities The system is available in many drive capacities to fit SMB, enterprise, and remote office environments. For details, see DR Series System Drive and System Capacities. The DR Series system CLI provides the means for managing the status, data capacity, storage savings, and throughput of data containers. NOTE: An online data verification or data-checking feature called Data Check is enabled by default on the Dell DR Series system. For more information about Data Check, see Data Integrity Checking. This Dell DR Series system CLI documentation assumes that the DR Series system has been deployed in its network location, and it is ready to be accessed using the DR Series system CLI commands. DR Series system drive and system capacities The DR Series system is available in the following system types: • DR4000 system-which consists of preinstalled DR Series system software on a modified Dell R510 appliance platform. 15
