This section demonstrates some of the capabilities of Arkeia Network Backup. The demos highlight the ease-of-use of both basic features (like file backup, restore, and reporting) and advanced capabilities (like Cloud Replication). Unless noted in the demo, all of the features of all of the demos are available whether the Arkeia backup server is deployed as an application, an appliance, or a virtual appliance.
Arkeia Network Backup: General Overview
This general overview video (narrated, 4 minutes) reviews basic concepts and operations common to all three types of deployments of Arkeia Network Backup. This demo first shows how an administrator would set up a deduplicated backup and then executes the backup.
Arkeia Network Backup: Replication Demonstration
The Arkeia Replication Demo (narrated, 4 minutes) reviews the steps to configure and perform a backup replication. The demo shows how the replication server (destination) is configured with the replication client (source). Finally, the demo shows an interactive replication. Note that the replication features of Arkeia are available on all Arkeia platforms.
Arkeia Network Backup: Deploying the Arkeia Virtual Appliance Demo
The Arkeia Virtual Appliance Demo (narrated, 5 minutes) reviews the steps to deploy the virtual appliance on a VMware vSphere ESX/ESXi platform. The demo shows how the virtual machine image is installed and disk resources are assigned to the virtual machine. Finally, the demo shows an interactive backup. Note that the full functionality of Arkeia Network Backup (shown in the first demo, above) is available using the Arkeia Virtual Appliance.
Arkeia Network Backup: The Central Management Server
The Central Management Server of the Arkeia Network Backup Suite gives an administrator the tools necessary to manage dozens of Backup Servers from a centralized console. With the Central Management Server, individual users are assigned roles to manage groups backup servers. The demo (narrated, 8 minutes) shows how administrators manage backups to disk, backups to tape, and transfers of backups from disk to tape. It shows how to use a wizard to define scheduled backups, whether these are full or incremental. Finally, it demonstrates the backup reporting facilities to list both successful and failed jobs
