The power of virtual backups.

The article reports on the determination of Snohomish PUD No. 1 to adapt STORServer to back up virtualized machines. The STORServer Agent enables information technology (IT) administrators to provide fast disaster recovery services and makes it possible for end users to restore their own files so that a Tivoli Storage Manger (TSM) administrator does not have to restore a whole virtual machine (VM) just to retrieve one file. According to Melinda Cooper, senior infrastructure system analyst for Snormish PUD No.1, STORServer user interface is easy to use because it allowed her to schedule backups by just pointing and clicking.
