New Capabilities and Platforms
New in Arkeia Network Backup v8.1 are Custom Restore Objects (CROs) that allow system administrators to assign restoration rights to end users. Administrators reduce their workload by extricating themselves from the data restoration process. Service to the end user is also improved by allowing end users to recover data at any time.
The new software also increases visibility into backup status with both pre-configured reports and powerful tools for custom report generation. Reports can be viewed via the web graphical user interface or delivered via e-mail, command line, or export-to-file. The reporting infrastructure allows reports to be easily integrated into customer dashboards.
New with Version 8.1 is support for AIX 6, Fedora 11, NetBSD 5.0, OpenBSD 4.5, Mac OS X Snow Leopard, and Microsoft Windows 7. Arkeia Network Backup protects data on more than 150 platforms, including virtually all Linux and Windows platforms, as well as AIX, BSD, HP-UX, Irix, Macintosh, Netware, Solaris, and VMware.
