Start Protecting Data 5 Times Faster

Simpler and Faster to Set Up and Manage
The Dell™ PowerVault™ DL2200 Backup to Disk Appliance powered by Symantec® Backup Exec 2010™ (part of the Dell TierDisk family of products) is one of the industry's first and only integrated solutions for faster disk-based backups with deduplication option and recoveries that lets you start protecting your data in just 18 minutes.Dell has simplified the backup process by offering the only integrated hardware, software and services solution powered by Symantec Backup Exec 2010. The PowerVault DL2200 Appliance comes factory-installed with Symantec Backup Exec 2010 software and a unique wizard driven set up and management utility. The backup software comes with integrated automated dynamic disk provisioning that configures and sets up the disks for immediate use. Set it up, configure storage, add more disks —it only takes a few clicks.
Deduplication Option
Savings, Simplicity and AdaptabilityThe PowerVault DL2200 Appliance with Backup Exec 2010 Deduplication Option supports a data-reduction strategy by optimizing storage and network bandwidth.The PowerVault DL2200 Appliance with Backup Exec 2010 is a unique solution that offers different levels of deduplication that is easily adaptable to your environment and is designed to be up to 50%* less expensive than similar tape solutions through deduplication. In the deduplication process, duplicate data is deleted, leaving only one copy of the data to be stored. However, indexing of all data is still retained if that data should ever be required.
Integrated Tape Support
The PowerVault DL2200 Appliance is available with the Dell PowerVault TL2000, TL4000, or ML6000 tape library integrated into the full solution. Take advantage of backup-to-disk for quick availability, then transfer to tape from the same management console for offsite disaster recovery.
Faster, More Reliable Backup
Managing backups with tape can be complex and time-consuming. Backups to tape often exceed their backup window, and tape-based backups can be prone to failure.Disk-based backups with the PowerVault DL2200 Appliance – Powered by Symantec are up 55% faster than tape and restores are up to 50% faster.
Better Than VTL
Virtual Tape Libraries (VTLs) are ”point products” that can help fix backup and recovery bottlenecks in the short term. But they are separate components that create silos of information and add management complexity. Virtual tapes have to be created, provisioned, and managed from a separate interface, and VTL products lack alerting and reporting within the backup solution. The PowerVault DL2200 Appliance is a native, disk-to-disk solution that eliminates the need for manual setup and management. It automatically and dynamically provisions disks, invisibly to the user, and gives you proactive monitoring, alerts and reporting.
Remote Backup, Management, Monitoring and Maintenance
Your data centre administrators can use the PowerVault DL2200 Appliance to backup data from remote offices to the data centre. Administrators can setup backup tasks and policies and do system monitoring and maintenance from a central location. This makes the PowerVault DL2200 Appliance the ideal backup solution for remote offices that do not have IT experts on site.Learn More Intelligent Disaster Recovery White Paper
Granular Recovery Technology for Speedy Restores
With Symantec Backup Exec 2010’s patent-pending Granular Recovery Technology (GRT) for critical Microsoft® applications, including Exchange, SharePoint (MOSS), and Active Directory your administrator can recover granular objects from a single-pass backup by simply browsing and selecting it. GRT lets you recover specific items such as public folders and individual mailboxes — even individual e-mails, attachments, and calendar items — all without a time-consuming full restore.
Continuous Data Protection for Exchange and File
The PowerVault DL2200 Appliance – Powered by Symantec Backup Exec 2010 continuously protects Microsoft Exchange and file data by backing up changes to the disk in real time as they occur. Not only does this improve the overall level of data protection, it also reduces administrative complexity because it eliminates the need for full, incremental, or differential backups for Exchange data.Learn More Continuous Data Protection White Paper
Protection for Desktops and Laptops
Backup Exec 2010’s Desktop and Laptop Option (DLO) lets users automatically protect and sync multiple desktops and laptops via a network share. DLO lets users choose continuous, scheduled, or manual backups and provides an intuitive interface that lets users access their most up-to-date data whether they are in the office or on the road.Protection for VMware Virtual Machines
