Policy Compliance

While regulatory compliance is a legal requirement

imposed on all organizations, policy compliance refers

specifically to those policies that a company imposes

on itself. For example, a company might choose to back

up only specific mailboxes, folders or attachments.

The BrightStor ARCserve Backup Agent for Microsoft

Exchange Premium Add-on supports this form of

compliance as well, enabling you to specify which

mailboxes and folders to back up or exclude, and the

maximum size of attachments to back up. Having this

kind of flexibility can not only help you comply with

company policies, but also gives you better control over

how quickly your storage capacity requirements grow so

that you can postpone capital investments in additional

storage hardware.

Migrating to the Latest Version of Exchange

Many businesses today are still running older versions

of Exchange (including Exchange 5.5 and Exchange 2000)

and could benefit from the many new features contained

in Exchange 2003. However, upgrading can be complicated

and time-consuming, and many organizations have

delayed this move as long as possible. Since Microsoft

will soon be dropping support for Exchange 5.5, many

organizations now need to migrate as quickly, efficiently

and painlessly as possible.

The BrightStor ARCserve Backup Agent for Microsoft

Exchange Premium Add-on includes migration support

to help you rapidly and completely migrate all parts of

the Exchange data set to the latest version of Exchange,

thereby cutting the time, effort and cost of migration

dramatically.

Maximizing Exchange Uptime

Organizations that depend on Exchange to support

business communication often require 24 x 7 availability

of both the application and its associated data. Application

or server failure can disrupt that communication and

result in greatly reduced productivity and even lost

business opportunities.

By replicating Exchange and the email it manages on

a secondary server in real time, BrightStor

High

Availability provides continuous access to this critical

application at a fraction of the cost and complexity of

clustering. When a failure occurs, BrightStor High

Availability instantly and transparently switches users

to the secondary server, eliminating any downtime or

interruption of service. The secondary server can reside

anywhere in the network — in another building, another

city or another country — providing an even greater

degree of reliability. Once the primary server is repaired

or replaced, you can easily transfer users back to it. You

Optimum Performance and

Space Utilization for Exchange

Exchange servers often manage the emails of hundreds

or even thousands of employees. Many of these employees

receive and store the exact same email and attachments.

The BrightStor

ARCserve

Backup Agent for Microsoft

Exchange Premium Add-on leverages a technology known

as single-instance store (SIS) that intelligently identifies

multiple copies of the same email and attachments

across all mailboxes and makes a single backup copy of

these. This can have a dramatic effect on the size of the

backup sets and, subsequently, improve backup and

restore performance.

The BrightStor

Storage Resource Manager Option for

Microsoft Exchange also enables you to map each message

stored to the volume on which it resides. It automatically

queries distributed Exchange databases and alerts IT staff

to problems before critical data is at risk. This solution

collects high-level, storage-related information on email,

including departments, servers, storage groups, mailbox

and public stores, public and private folders, and user

mailbox properties. Capacity threshold monitoring, alert

notifications and problem remediation for storage-related

error detection are also provided.

Regulatory Compliance

From the SEC to the FDA to the U.S. Congress, as well

as worldwide bodies, government entities have recently

established additional regulations that dictate how

business information is stored, protected and accessed.

Many of these regulations are considerably more stringent

than standard business practices, requiring a retooling

of IT processes and systems. Since the rules were

introduced with multiyear timelines, many organizations

concentrated on more immediate issues. However, due

to impending deadlines, the risks of noncompliance and

the specter of enforcement are fast becoming a reality.

In many cases, the U.S. government and other

governments consider email a business record, thereby

raising its retention, protection and accessibility

requirements to new levels. Rather than being purged

on a regular basis, email must now be preserved,

introducing various IT problems.

BrightStor solutions can aid the process of archiving

and legal discovery. For example, the BrightStor

ARCserve Backup Agent for Microsoft Exchange

Premium Add-on supports search-based restores at

the mailbox, folder and message levels. You can search

for a particular phrase within the titles of messages, and

once you have found all the email that meet your criteria,

you can easily restore them.

With BrightStor, you can also use write-once, read-many

(WORM) media. This special media, which can be written

to and not erased, is ideal for regulatory compliance

since a complete list of every piece of data ever written

to the media would always be available. In contrast,
