NetBackup Search Overview

• Powerful legal search and hold tool designed to find and manage relevant files in your backup environment

• Federated searches across domains increases searching performance

15

• Create search queries based on custodians, user groups, date ranges, file locations, and file types

• Save, edit, and export search queries for legal traceability• Robust image level holds management tools ensures data is

preserved which helps to avoid legal sanctions• Hold reports in OpsCenter provide insight into size and duration

of legal holds for visibility and chargeback

The Problem with File Level Restore Today


Restore requests must go through backup department or highly trained staff

Restoring files is a resource intensive task

How do you find the file? 1. Gather as much information from

the user as possible 2. Log into admin GUI3. Browse NetBackup catalog4. Repeat step 3

File Restore Using OpsCenter Operational Restore


Quickly find files across multiple clients and multiple domains

Built into NetBackup 7.5 - no additional infrastructure or license key required

Ability to restore from multiple sources and to alternate locations without leaving OpsCenter

• Disaster Recovery Drills• Restore from Snapshots

Restore cart allows user to batch up restore job for future processing

File Restore Using OpsCenter Operational Restore


OpsCenter View Based Access Control


Views group objects, for example clients, in OpsCenter.Users can be granted roles related to the objects in a view. Example:Steve is a restore operator. We want only him to be able restores to selected clients.

Solution: • Create the view “LDN-Servers” grouping the

servers• Create a user ID for Steve with the role of

restore operator• Grant Steve access to the “LDN-Servers” View
