Disk-based implementation of a data protection solution for a single site

This data protection solution provides the following benefits:

• Server system and storage hardware at a single site
• Cost-effective use of storage through the data deduplication feature
• Space-efficient solution with minimal hardware setup
• Minimal implementation that requires installation and configuration for only one server and supporting storage hardware

In this solution, the client sends data to the IBM Storage Protect server, where the data is deduplicated and stored in a directory-container storage pool that is implemented in disk storage. Data from the inventory is also backed up to disk storage. This solution is suitable for entry-level environments for which a second copy of data is not required.
