Improving disaster recovery with Virtual Tape Libraries in Mainframe Environments
SSG-NOW Subscription Content
Recovering from disasters is an arduous process for mainframe data center managers who rely on tape-based backup jobs – it’s a process often fraught with the fallibility of tape -- media errors, time-consuming tape mounting, security risks caused by data loss and the timely and costly retrieval of data from off-site locations. Companies’ recovery time objectives (RTO) and recovery point objectives (RPO) must synch with the technology they use for protecting their mainframe data and with how they manage their off-site disaster recovery (DR) and business continuity operations.
