GAINING INSIGHT TOUR 2007
DPM Identifies Blocks that Compose Files
DPM filter creates a volume map, to monitor which disk blocks contain portions of the files to be protected

Top Reasons To Plan for DPM 2007
• No more failed recoveries• Near zero data loss for Exchange, SQL, and SharePoint• Seamless Disk-to-Disk-to-Tape for backups • Recoveries within minutes instead of hours• Unified policy allows protection of multiple data types to any media
– in one schedule and with common tuning options• Eliminate the backup window of your production servers• Shrink potential data loss down to 15 minutes• Application recovery direct from backup UI – no pre-staging • Enable end-users to perform their own recoveries• Remove tapes from branch offices and centralize
backups at the datacenter
