LXI's vault management manages corporate business-critical data across the enterprise by simplifying and centralizing media movement operations for iSeries, UNIX, AIX, Linux and Windows. Best practices in disaster recovery require that two fundamental events take place: (1) data is backed up to removable media, and (2), that media is moved to a different location. MMS/vms manages media movement by helping system administrators develop rotation strategies that ensure full recovery in case of disaster while minimizing the costs involved in identifying, transferring and storing the media. Clear audit control points are established for operators that simplify procedures, incorporate automation and reduce errors, delivering confidence and assurance that data is protected.
