The Oracle Solaris operating system provides many options for software storage configuration, including Solaris Volume Manager (SVM) and ZFS. Each allows you to configure your system for the best possible I/O performance and system availability using striping, mirroring, specific disk placement, etc. After a full system failure, recovering a Solaris server to its previous configuration can be a difficult and time-consuming task. Add a change in disk or system hardware to the process and you may experience days of downtime and lost revenues. SBAdmin provides a flexible replacement for flash archive.

While SBAdmin for Oracle Solaris is a tape and disk backup management solution with many advanced features for managing your user data backup strategy, it is the full system backup and recovery features that distinguishes SBAdmin from competing products. SBAdmin is the leader in Adaptable System Recovery (ASR), which provides the unique ability to recover an entire Solaris system and install it onto the same or dissimilar hardware.

SBAdmin understands your Oracle Solaris system including the advanced storage configuration options. This expertise allows ASR to provide you with the flexibility to make changes to the storage configuration at the time of system recovery. This process also makes SBAdmin an ideal solution for hardware migration and provisioning/cloning scenarios.
