Retrieval and Recovery of Global Files

Experiment Name: Retrieval and Recovery of Global Files of IBM Storage Protect Plus

Experiment Content:
IBM Storage Protect Plus is a solution that can be used for data protection of VM environments (e.g. VMware and Hyper-V), and enables the data protection and availability for virtual and physical machines of database like Oracle and SQL Server. This experiment will guide you to implement global retrieval and fast file-level restore with IBM Storage Protect Plus. (duration: 10-15mns)

Experiment Resources:
IBM Storage Protect Plus 10.1.1 software
VMware vSphere 5.5 and VMware vCenter Server 5.5
- Windows Server 2008 R2 (VMs)
