Presenter: Chuck Losinski, Product Support Manager

Whether you use an automated tool or CL programs to run your backups, you'll benefit from this free Webinar, complete with tips for auditing your backups. Why wait until you have a disaster to learn about the health of your backups? We’ll demonstrate commands that show how your backups are doing. You’ll learn how to look at backup data areas, history logs, error logs, and object descriptions to see if you’re backups are good.

We’ll also cover Robot/SAVE features that your auditors and your disaster recovery staff will love:

• Consolidated reporting
• Tape tracking for save and restore activity
• Security for menu options and volumes
• Tape integrity across the data center
• Reports and online options for data restoration
• Documentation that defines your backup rules

Robot/SAVE is a complete backup and recovery package. It provides full tape management functions for System i servers and supports a centralized scratch pool. And, Robot/SAVE makes complying with Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX), HIPAA, and PCI requirements easier.

Robot/SAVE answers all of the following questions:

• Which tape contains the latest version of the object you need?
• How do you enter the appropriate restore command?
• Who updates your procedures for restoring critical business data?
• Who monitors your weekend backups?
• Who saved a library on the system to tape?
• Who is authorized to change backup rules?
• Where are the tapes you need to restore the system?  

During the presentation you'll also have opportunities to tell us about your backup/recovery and tape management needs.
