The Business Challenge
Tracking removable media such as tapes through a rotation process is critical to ensuring rapid and efficient data recovery when disasters happen. Paper tracking is inefficient and error prone. However, most options for automating this process have been too difficult and intrusive to be practical in many environments.
The CommVault® Solution
CommVault® Vault Tracker™ software provides built-in capabilities for automating, tracking and reporting the process of rotating media and containers to off-site locations. These capabilities are built-in to the CommVault Common Technology Engine architecture, to make it simple and easy to manage as part of the backup and archive process. Vault Tracker™ software comes in two editions:
- Vault Tracker™ software as a standard component, which is enabled as part of any CommVault backup or archive solution. This edition can be used to track media movement between two locations or libraries, and automates media export.
- Vault Tracker™ Enterprise Edition, which is a license-key upgrade to add more robust capabilities including container tracking, Due Back capabilities, and managing a Media Repository. The Enterprise edition can be used to track media movement between several locations and libraries.
- Scheduling, managing and reporting are all done from the CommVault Unified Console along with backup and archive.
