AdvancedCopy Manager consists of the following software:
Manager
The Manager runs on the Storage Management Server and manages multiple Storage Servers. If there is only one Storage Server in the system, backup tasks and replication tasks can be performed by installing the Manager on the Storage Server because the agent functions are included with the Manager.
Agent
The Agent runs on a Storage Server that is connected to an ETERNUS storage system, and performs backup tasks and replication tasks. There are five platforms to choose from when using the Agent (Windows, Solaris, Linux, HP-UX, and AIX).
GUI client
This connects to the AdvancedCopy Manager Storage Management server, and monitors and administers the environment of AdvancedCopy Manager.
Tape Manager
The Tape Manager runs on a tape server that is connected to an ETERNUS tape library, and performs tape backup tasks.
Tape Agent
The Tape Agent runs on a Storage Server that is connected to an ETERNUS storage system, and issues instructions to the tape server to perform backups from disk to tape.
The Tape Agent is included in the Agent software.
Copy Control Module
The Copy Control Module performs backup using the Advanced Copy function of the ETERNUS storage system, without installing the Agent of AdvancedCopy Manager on the server that is the backup source.
For Copy Control Module installation procedures, refer to the "ETERNUS SF AdvancedCopy Manager 13.4 Operator's Guide for Copy Control Module".
