arcserve® UDP
Plan-Based Data Protection
A backup plan enables one or more data protection tasks to be run automatically
Example tasks include: -
− Host-Based Agentless Backup
− Agent-based Windows Backup
− Recovery Point Server Replication
− Remote Replication
− Copy Recovery Point
− Virtual Standby
− File Copy
Each task includes a set of activities to define the source, destination, schedule, advanced parameters etc.
Workflow engine enables integration with future modules & 3rd Parties

arcserve® UDP
Recovery Point Server, capacity optimized backup
Recovery Point Server (RPS) improves storage requirements, bandwidth usage & accelerates protection & recovery across sites
Provides global deduplication: Data is deduplicated across nodes, jobs & sites
WAN optimized replication:1-2-many & many 2-1
Jumpstart: Data seeding to speed remote site deployment
Reduces load on production systems, by offloading merge & backup catalog generation to RPS system
In place re-hydration of data for fast granular restore (including restores from tape)

arcserve® UDP
Block level infinite incremental (I2 Technology)TM
Block-level, infinite incremental design eliminates the need for second full backup
Uses less disk space and network bandwidth
Works in conjunction with deduplication, to improve capacity savings
Ideal for cloud or remote site protection
Significant backup job merge performance improvements, as only the deduplication index file needs to be updated, when duplicate recovery point data exists

Minimum System RequirementsCPU:
arcserve UDP Agent (Windows): 1 GHz or faster processor recommended
arcserve UDP RPS Server: 4 logical processor or faster processor recommended
RAM:
arcserve UDP Agent (Windows): 1 GB or more recommended
arcserve UDP RPS Server: 8GB or more recommended
Disk Space Requirements:– Installation of arcserve_Unified_Data_Protection_Agent.exe : 2 GB (minimum), 2.5 GB or more (recommended), 2GB
free for temp folder, 300MB free on System Volume for shared components
– Installation of arcserve_Unified_Data_Protection.exe: 5 GB (minimum), 7 GB or more (recommended), 3GB
free for temp folder, 2GB free on System Volume for shared components
Host-Based VM Backup:– VIX API 1.13 is required on the machine acting as the arcserve® UDP backup proxy for agentless backups. It is also recommended to
install VIX API 1.13.x on the machine where you installed the arcserve® UDP Console.
– For VIX API 1.13, it is required that all virtual machines are updated with the most recent VMware tools.
Other Hardware– CD/DVD ROM Drive (necessary when installed from a CD/DVD)
– XGA (1024 x 768) or higher-resolution video adapter and monitor
Internet Browser– For a complete list of all supported Internet browsers, see the Compatibility Matrix.
Adobe Flash Player– Adobe Flash Player 10 or later Note: Adobe Flash Player is needed on the computer from where the arcserve® Unified Data
Protection Console is accessed. This can be the arcserve UDP server itself or any other remote computer.
