Backup and Restore
The RaQ XTR server supports third-party backup and restore solutions from three
companies:
• Knox Arkeia
• Legato NetWorker
• Veritas NetBackup
Under the Server Management > Backup and Restore tab, the RaQ XTR
Administrator can configure the RaQ XTR server to use one of these solutions.
Control
The Control feature allows the RaQ XTR Administrator to “lock” the Server
Desktop UI in read-only mode or to shut down all services currently running on
the server, except for any configured backup programs.
• Locking the Server Desktop UI during the backup and restore process helps
to guarantee that consistent configuration information for the server is saved
and restored.
• Stopping all services currently running on the server enables the backup
program to restore data to the system.
✍
Note: This section explains how to enable the backup clients for
these solutions on the RaQ XTR server.
To configure the backup server software, see Appendix F, “Disaster
Recovery with Third-Party Software”.
✍
Note: Cobalt recommends that the RaQ XTR Administrator reboot
the server after a restore operation.
