Dell Solutions Enabler 10.0.0 TimeFinder/Clone CLI User Guide

Introduction to TimeFinder Family

Dell TimeFinder/Clone allows nondisruptive creation and management of point-in-time copies of data, enabling simultaneous action of business tasks that were previously sequential. TimeFinder creates and manages point-in-time copies of critical data that can be used for backups, decision support, and to refresh data warehouse, test, and development environments.

The ability to access source data during the TimeFinder copy operation eliminates the backup window and provides benefits such as accelerated upgrades and high availability. TimeFinder can also shorten the maintenance window, minimize infrastructure costs, and improve service levels.
