6. HOW IT WORKS
#GWAVACon

7. DISASTER RECOVERY
• DR is Push-Button Easy!
• No Backup sets to choose or combine
• No decisions to make
• Just push the “Disaster Recovery Failover” Button
• Reload Server hosts the live Post Office(s) or Domain(s)
#GWAVACon

8. POST DISASTER RECOVERY
Wizard driven Migration
• Migrate to original, a new server or even a new server platform (NetWare -> Linux)
• Migrate 90% of the live post office data while the live post office is being hosted on the Reload server

9. BLUEPRINT REPORTS
#GWAVACon

10. BACKUP EFFECTIVITY
PostOffice Size: 100 GB
Initial Backup: 100 GB
Incremental Backup: 12 GB
7 days of Backup: 184 GB
Instead of 7 x 100 = 700 GB
Rule of thumb: 5x size of PostOffice for 14 days of backups

14. RELOAD BACKUP FOR RETAIN
Reload for Retain is the perfect backup and disaster recovery solution for Retain. Never before have you been able
to quickly and easily create automatic hot backups of your archive Retain communication data.
#GWAVACon

15. RELOAD BACKUP FOR RETAIN
Even though all your business communication data are archived in Retain, there are important database storage
vulnerabilities you must consider:
• If you lose the database, the archive files are orphaned and they are of no use
• If you lose the archived files, you lose content
• Indexes should be backed up, but they can be recreated
