EMC Centera Backup and Recovery Module (CBRM) is a companion product that enables EMC Centera storage system content to be backed up to and restored from tape, at the C-Clip level, by using industry-standard backup products including EMC NetWorker, Symantec NetBackup, and IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM).
As with traditional backup/restore operations, the above-mentioned data protection products will originate backup and restore operations, maintain backup indexes, and manage all tape operations, while CBRM transports the EMC Centera C-Clips between the Network Data Management Protocol (NDMP) and the EMC Centera API.
While Centera replication is the primary method for protection of EMC Centera content, CBRM provides an important backup and restore capability for EMC Centera users, as many organizations still require the capability performing an additional backup of Centera content to tape. CBRM enables organizations to maintain consistency with corporate policies that govern data protection, as well as users
