Understanding How the Option Works Understanding How the Option Works The option is based on the concept of collecting and saving machine-specific information before a disaster strikes. Whenever a full backup job is submitted, the option automatically generates and saves emergency data information for the node, locally on the backup server, on backup media, and, if configured, on a remote computer. In the event of a disaster, the option can recover its protected computers to their last full backup state. Therefore, the recovery depends on the availability of full backup data. Note: The option generates or updates emergency data information for disaster recovery only when performing a full backup of the machine. Features and Functionality The option is a flexible, easy-to-use, enterprise-wide solution to protect your data on Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows 2003 based machines. The option provides you with the following features and functionality: ■ It protects your local BrightStor ARCserve Backup server and remote Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows 2003 clients backed up by the BrightStor® ARCserve® Backup Client Agent using BrightStor ARCserve Backup Server for Windows. ■ You can quickly put an unusable system back online, saving you substantial time compared to recovering your system in the traditional method of first reinstalling the operating system and later configuring it. There is no need to reconfigure the system before it is usable when you use the option. ■ The option works with minimal user input. It can support any system that BrightStor ARCserve Backup supports. The aim is to protect the server on which BrightStor ARCserve Backup and other important applications are running.

information before a disaster strikes. Whenever a full backup job is submitted, the
option automatically generates and saves emergency data information for the
node, locally on the backup server, on backup media, and, if configured, on a
remote computer. In the event of a disaster, the option can recover its protected
computers to their last full backup state. Therefore, the recovery depends on the
availability of full backup data.
Note:
The option generates or updates emergency data information for disaster
recovery only when performing a full backup of the machine.
