Though some IT administrators and SMBs are well equipped to get their backup strategy planned, most still fail in some basic ideas which results in loss of data. Below is the list of few common backup errors that are repeatedly witnessed among IT administrators and the solution on how Vembu BDR suite helps them resolve it.

Importance of timed system state backups:
In a clumsy network environment where 100’s of computers are managed by a single server, backing up system state data periodically is a must requirement. But at times customers tend to get their machines backed up in a rather odd intervals which sometimes tends to take prolonged period. But in a environment that is critically clumsy, passwords are changed for machines in a timely fashion for security purposes and are stored in network domains.

In such condition, if a backup taken exceeds the timeframe of ‘password change’ it becomes unusable. Thus backup restore unlink the restored machine from the network domain cos of password mismatch. There exists numerous steps to overcome the issue, once you witness it.

But Vembu VMBackup in Vembu BDR suite gives a better solution to this with the backup scheduling option where a user can schedule backups based on hourly, weekly and monthly fashion for incremental and is also have the option to preconfigure additional full backups.

Backup consistency check:
For an IT administrator, there are critical times when they’re in desperate need of restoring backups but then find the backup is no longer useful since it’s corrupted. This issue highly occurs in case of using application servers in the environment(i.e)Exchange, SQL servers etc., There ain’t a workaround to overcome this issue once it’s witnessed but there are options to avoid such scenarios in the future.

Securing security measures:
For an IT administrator, while backing up age old business data is one among the requirements there exists another requirement, IT security. IT security ranges from securing business critical machines to business critical backup data and switching passwords periodically is one among the measures taken to ensure security.

But there exists a possible scenario, where forgetting password for age-old backup data while restore might occur. In such a case, exists nil solutions to proceed any further.

Vembu BDR suite products avails a better solution to overcome such scenario by availing self-generated password encryption for all backup data. This allows users to avoid remembering passwords, in the meantime ensures high-security to backup data.

Multi-sourced restores:
Any organization should remember that relying on a single restore source will always put businesses at heavy risk. Consider the following scenario- In an organization where a system crash occurred on a large scale, there exists another crucial condition of backup server to witness a possible hardware failure anytime; What option to they have to rely on other than the only backup server?

Having a replicated copy of backup server data is the prior need to avoid such scenarios and Vembu BDR suite avails the option to replicate server data to offsite data center, thus providing required solution.

But what if the case of a natural disaster striking offsite data center or there exists no offsite data center for organizations?

Vembu BDR suite also do provide the solution for such requirements, the users are allowed to get their backup data replicated to Vembu cloud in a secure fashion with DR options on Vembu NetworkBackup, Vembu VMBackup and Vembu OnlineBackup.
