HP Application Recovery Manager software A.06.10 Concepts guide (March 2008)

Application Recovery Manager software. For backup and
restore, SAP R/3 programs issue orders for the Application
Recovery Manager backint interface.
backup object A backup unit that contains all items backed up from one disk
volume (logical disk or mount point). The backed up items can
be the entire disk or mount point. Additionally, a backup object
can be a database/application entity or a disk image (rawdisk).
A backup object is defined by:
• Client name: Hostname of the Application Recovery Manager
client where the backup object resides.
• Mount point: For filesystem objects — the access point in a
directory structure on the client where the backup object is
located (drive on Windows and mount point on UNIX). For
integration objects — backup stream identification, indicating
the backed up database/application items.
• Description: For filesystem objects — uniquely defines objects
with identical client name and mount point. For integration
objects — displays the integration type (for example, SAP).
• Type: Backup object type. For filesystem objects — filesystem
type (for example, WinFS). For integration objects — “Bar”.
backup owner Each backup object in the IDB has an owner. The default owner
of a backup is the user who starts the backup session.
backup session A process that creates a copy of source volumes on a disk array.
The activities are specified in a backup specification.
See also source volume and backup specification.
backup set A complete set of integration objects associated with a backup.
backup
specification
A list of objects to be backed up, backup options for all objects
in the specification, and days and time that you want backups
to be performed. The objects are entire disks/volumes.
backup system (ZDB specific term) A system connected to target volumes of one
or multiple application systems. The backup system is connected
to a ZDB disk array and is used for mounting the data in the
target volumes (replica).
See also application system, target volume, and replica.
