What Will Be Covered in Your Robot/SAVE Phone Demo

Product: 
Robot/SAVE

Our standard phone demo for Robot/SAVE covers the topics listed below. During the demo we will use an existing job from your system or manually create a test job, and we will discuss:

  • Review the system setup
  • Discuss how to use a data center
  • Discuss and create a backup class and backup set
  • Execute a backup
  • Discuss the procedures to follow after you run a backup
  • Review and discuss restoration procedures

Important: Before the phone demo, make sure that the current versions of Robot/SAVE and Robot/CORRAL are installed on your system.

The following page lists additional Robot/SAVE topics on which you can receive information (either during the phone demo or at a later date). If you would like information on a topic, mark the topic(s) with an X and fax the topic sheet, along with your registration information, to the fax number shown below.

When preparing for a phone demo, do the following:

  • Have a tape drive available for us to work with. (It should be one that will not adversely affect your operations while we are on the phone with you.) Know the type of drive and media.
  • If you are not already familiar with Robot/SAVE, review the Robot/SAVE Getting Started guide prior to the phone demo.
  • What is your current backup strategy?
    • A weekly *NONSYS and daily SAVLIB?
    • A weekly SAVLIB and daily SAVCHGOBJ?
    • A weekly SAVLIB *ALLUSR and daily SAVCHGOBJ *ALLUSR?
  • Media Usage

    • How do you name your volumes?
    • How many generations of a backup do you keep?
    • Would you like to share volumes across multiple systems?
