This is the third in my series of what's new for File System Archiving in Enterprise Vault v9.  Here I want to focus on a new utility we've delivered called FSAUndelete. This is there to help you when you need to granularly restore placeholders from a backup image and where you have Delete on Delete enabled.

We all know that sooner or later end users will ask the IT department to restore some files that have been accidentally deleted. If you've been archiving the file system, then that restore request  may need to include non-archived files as well as placeholders pointing to the archived content.

If you have not enabled Delete on Delete then there is nothing additional to worry about. Restoring placeholders from a backup image will straight away work. Better still, instead of having the IT team do the restore, point the user to Archive Explorer and let them recover the files themselves directly from the archive.

However, if you are using...

Moving forward …
 
As you may have seen, today (Sept. 7) Symantec announced the release of Enterprise Vault 9.0 and the NetBackup 5000 appliance.  On the Enterprise Vault side, our customers have been very eagerly awaiting both the Exchange 2010 SP1 support (roughly co-sync with MSFT!) and the new Discovery Collector offering.  In the world of data protection, I’ve heard great things from our beta testers and early adopters of the NetBackup 5000 … especially for speed of configuration, ease of deployment, and performance.  What, performance too?  Yes, it’s ripping fast! 
 
Of course, if you are reading this you’ve probably seen the press releases (Enterprise Vault 9.0, NetBackup 5000) already, so I won’t rehash the specifics here.
 
Instead, let’s talk strategy.  The first...

Hello folks,

A message from Stephanie Guaman in Symantec's User Centered Design (UCD) Group. We're doing a user study focused on our products for legal audiences interested in and familiar with E-Discovery processes. 

There's a reward, beyond just the satisfaction of telling Symantec what to do and how to do it :-)  See the attached invite for details. And thanks for helping, in advance, from the UCD and Enterprise Vault teams.

Hi everyone,

We're conducting a really short survey on Data Protection and Archiving, and how much of your IT time and budget is spent on it. We'd really appreciate your help. You can take the survey right here:

Doug Young, CIO from State of MO, and Annie Goranson, of Symantec, recently co-presented on a webinar sponsored by Governing.  Annie walked through the issues/challenges of info management and discovery, and Doug talked “real world” about how the State of MO is using EV to manage their processes.  Feel free to click the on24 link below for a replay of the presentation (no registration req'd).

As a quick introduction, I am a product manager within the Symantec Information Management Group - specifically responsible for the File System Archiving component of Enterprise Vault.

We are always looking for input from our customers as to what they would like to see us developing next. One area that we've talked about internally for a while is that of Unix Archiving. By Unix Archiving I mean archiving content out of the Unix platform rather than an archiving application running on Unix. We would like to know whether you have demand for such an applicaton and if you do, what are the key features you would be looking for. If you are operating a unix environment, but not necessarily requiring Unix Archiving today, we would still like to hear from you to obtain environmental information.

To help us gather this information, we are conducting a short survey which should take 15-20 minutes to complete. If you do have an interest in this topic, we would very...

The Symantec Enterprise Vault and NetBackup Product Management Teams are conducting customer research in support of our product integration planning.  The first part of this research effort is 4 page web survey (see below).  This online survey is designed to collect some relevant customer environment and satisfaction/outlook data.  We would like to get as many NetBackup and Enterprise Vault customers as possible to complete the survey so that we have a comprehensive data set, and also to leverage these responses in recruiting for our 2nd wave of research (customer “interviews”) and possibly other related follow-up discussions.

 

The survey should take approximately 20 minutes to complete (it contains 40 questions). The survey is intended for product administrators (NBU and/or EV administrators).  The questions assume a strong understanding of the information managed by our products, as well as the environment...

Growth is a problem lots of companies would like to be dealing with right now. But it isn’t always easy to manage growth, especially growing your IT infrastructure to keep up with a fast-growing business.

This was a problem facing ENGlobal, an engineering firm that provides services to the energy sector. ENGlobal has experienced tremendous growth in recent years, both organically and through acquisitions.  As a result of this growth, the company ENGlobal had outsourced its backup operations to couldn’t keep up, causing backup costs to increase by 50 percent.

ENGlobal made the determination that could cut costs and be better off financially in the long run if they were to bring data protection back in house. The company turned to NetBackup to solve its backup needs. Over the life of the project,  ENGlobal expects to save $6.25 million in outsourcing...
