hardware components are involved in this process: server, 12-bay

backup software that consists of a SQL database that keeps track of
the data. It emails and provides detail reports daily. The software
uses the storage pool concept like the commercial applications. The
12 bay RAID storage will always been online and serve as the main
online storage for the backup solution. The 4 bay storage will not be
in a RAID set (JBOD), and it will be treated as tape(off-line). When the
server makes the off-site copy to that storage pool it writes it to
one of the 4 drives. Once all the drives are full they can be taken
out (hot-swapping online), and replaced with new ones. The hard disks
will be taken to a fire proof safe deposit box at a bank. The bank
will provide higher security, and will compensate [Company Name] if the data
is stolen. The other servers will run a backup client that will
communicate to the server when it needs a restore or backup. Backup
schedules can be set for the all clients. </font></font>

I'm surprised no one has added the "I don't do backups 'cause all the<br>
important stuff is in-my-head/hardcopy".<br>
<br>
NASA has a truly horrid backup problem. They have so much data that<br>
the media is beginning to fail before they can get back around to<br>
transfer it to another format. There is stuff from the early Mercury<br>
and Gemini days that is not searchable as it is on paper (that is<br>
rotting away - pre acid-free days) and much of the moon landing data<br>
that is electronic is on tape media with no remaining drives that<br>
function.<br>
<br>
Imagine needing to backup dozens of TB that is readable at only 2-3Kb/s!<br>
