EMC Celerra LAN Backup to Disk With CommVault Galaxy: Best Practices Planning

Disk-based data protection solutions have become desirable and affordable because of the lower cost of Advanced Technology-Attached (ATA) storage systems. As a complement to using tape for long-term storage, backup to disk is a powerful solution for rapid recovery of mission-critical data, and it yields significant benefits over traditional backup-to-tape. This paper discusses the advantages of backup to disk and outlines best practices for using and configuring CommVault Galaxy Backup and Recovery software with a Celerra IP storage system as the backup-to-disk target for Windows clients.
