Integrating with Network

Backup Applications

You can use third-party backup applications on any computer on the network

with a tape drive attached to perform a network backup. The HP NAS 8000

supports the following backup applications:

■

HP OpenView OmniBack II (page 161)

■

Computer Associates ARCserve 2000 (page 165)

■

Veritas Backup Exec (page 167)

■

Veritas NetBackup (page 169)

■

IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (page 171)

■

Legato NetWorker (page 173)

Note

These backup applications have been tested to be compatible

with the HP NAS 8000 device. Additionally, any backup

package that can back up a CIFS or NFS mount without using

the backup agent should be compatible. Contact the software

vendors for compatibility information with network-attached

storage devices.

Backup files are accessed using file protocols such as CIFS or NFS via the

network. Backup and restore via CIFS protocols preserves both CIFS and NFS

attributes. Backup and restore via NFS protocols only preserves NFS

attributes.
