- 3. What is aBackup? • Backup is an additional copy of data that can be used for restore and recovery purposes • This Backup copy can be created by: – Simply coping data (there can be one or more copies) – Mirroring data (the copy is always updated with whatever is written to the primary
- 4. Backup Strategy A backupis put in place to avoid permanent data loss to ensure the integrity of stored data i.e. can get back to a previous version and build up the data correctly if current data found to be in error.
- 5. Recovery Procedures • Abackup strategy needs a well documented and tested recovery procedure to ensure backup data is restored properly
- 6. Factors in recoveryprocedure: • A well documented procedure that allocates roles and responsibilities to staff. • Availability of alternative hardware and accommodation if the originals have been destroyed. • Availability of original software such as the customised operating system and application programs! • That up-to-date backup data is readily available
- 7. Backup purposes – DisasterRecovery • Restores production data to an operational state after disaster – Operational • Restore data in the event of data loss or logical corruptions that may occur during routine processing – Archival • Preserve transaction records, email, and other business work products for regulatory compliance
- 8. Types of backups •Three basic types of backups: • Full backups • Differential backups • Incremental backups
- 9. Full backups – fulland complete backup of entire system Full Backup Su Su Su Su Su
- 10. Differential backups – storageof all files that have changed or been added since last full backup Su Su Su Su SuM T TW F S M T TW F S M T TW F S M T TW F S

- 12. Key Features ofDifferential backups – More files to be backed up, therefore it takes more time to backup and uses more storage space – Much faster restore because only the last full and the last cumulative backup must be applied

Backup Operation • Startthe scheduled backup process • Backup data retrieves backup related information from backup catalog • Backup server instructs storage node to local backup media in backup device • Backup server instruct backup clients to send its metadata to the backup server and data to be backup to storage mode. • Backup clients send data to storage node • Storage node sends data to backup device • Storage node sends media information to backup servers • Backup server update and records the status

- 21. Restore Operation • Backupserver scans backup catalog to identify the data to be restore and the client that will receive data. • Backup servers instructs storage node to load backup media in backup device. • Data is read and send to backup client. • Storage node sends restore metadata to backup server. • Backup server updates catalog.
- 22. Backup Topologies • Thereare 3 basic backup topologies: – Direct Attached Based Backup – LAN Based Backup – SAN Based Backup
