INNOVATION Data Processing data processing or information processing, operations (e.g., handling, merging, sorting, and computing) performed upon data in accordance with strictly defined procedures, such as recording and summarizing the financial transactions of a , a leading worldwide provider of enterprise storage management solutions, today is announcing S/390 Linux Rescuer the industry's first Disaster Recovery Solution for S/390 Linux. A unique and powerful addition to the INNOVATION FDR/UPSTREAM enterprise storage management tool, S/390 Linux Rescuer makes FDR/UPSTREAM the industry's first complete S/390 Linux backup/restore solution, with a stand alone system recovery facility, for end-to-end business continuance protection. S/390 Linux Rescuer, for recovery in the event of a disaster, runs on a zSeries IBM eServer This article is about the IBM family of computer servers. For the open access electronic text archive, see EServer.org. IBM eServer was a family of computer servers from IBM Corporation. under a distributor's Linux disaster recovery facility. Employing that system's network communications and disk access, S/390 Linux Rescuer allows FDR/UPSTREAM to recover a user's entire system, including their Linux system boot disk, file systems, device drives as well as all their application program and data files. Available in February 2003, FDR/UPSTREAM 3.2.1, will include S/390 Linux Rescuer, as a stand alone system recovery facility for SuSE S/390 Linux systems running on IBM (International Business Machines Corporation, Armonk, NY, www.ibm.com) The world's largest computer company. IBM's product lines include the S/390 mainframes (zSeries), AS/400 midrange business systems (iSeries), RS/6000 workstations and servers (pSeries), Intel-based servers (xSeries) S/390 and zSeries eServers. "S/390 Linux Rescuer, is one of the principle reasons Mainline chose FDR/UPSTREAM to be the business continuance component of our package solution for those organizations looking to roll out new Linux workloads or execute cost effective server consolidation strategies on the IBM zSeries eServer family of computers", said Rick Kearney CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of Mainline Information Systems, a Premier IBM Business Partner providing processors, storage and software to customers nationwide. "Adding S/390 Linux Rescuer to FDR/UPSTREAM complements an already extensive array of capabilities", says INNOVATION Vice President, Thomas J. Meehan, "a list that includes, UPSTREAM agents for non-disruptive online backup of all major databases, HSM (1) (Hierarchical Storage Management) The automatic movement of files from hard disk to slower, less-expensive storage media. The typical hierarchy is from magnetic disk to optical disc to tape. file migration, file transfer between heterogeneous platforms and tape vaulting with centrally administered profile policy management for disaster protection to mention just a few of the features." FDR/UPSTREAM 3.2.1 enhancements, in addition to S/390 Linux Rescuer, add support for file-level backup/restore of FIFO (First In First Out) A storage method that retrieves the item stored for the longest time. Contrast with LIFO. See traffic engineering methods. FIFO - first-in first-out and device files, expanding the capability of UPSTREAM to protect all existing Linux file types including hard links, symbolic links, owners, single file systems, Reiser file systems as well as ext2, ext3, XFS XFS X Font Server (Sun) XFS Extended File System XFS X-Fleet Sentinels (gaming clan) XFS Extensions for Financial Services (software interface specification) and remote NFS (Network File System) The file sharing protocol in a Unix network. This de facto Unix standard, which is widely known as a "distributed file system," was developed by Sun. See file sharing protocol and WebNFS. NFS - Network File System attachments. UPSTREAM, with no additional setup or special consideration will transparently incorporate in every backup metadata on each file system, including file system demarcation points. Now even easier to use, a single specification can backup an entire system with record setting performance, while on zSeries IBM eServers FDR/UPSTREAM employs HiperSockets to further accelerate backup/restore throughput.
