A common approach IT administrators use is to create a complete Windows system disk copy perhaps once a month or whenever a new software or Windows Update is installed. The data disks, usually residing on larger RAID arrays, are then backed up using traditional file backup mechanisms, such as version backup, network backup, NAS backup, and other methods provided by BackupChain. The disk copy ensures an immediate full Windows system recovery is possible. The much larger data disk partitions are best handled by file backup, which can skip very fast over areas that haven’t changed when backing up. Those, too, can be copied either to a network server or separate disk array structure so that they are immediately accessible and ready to go in case of a disaster.
Mirroring To and From Remote Disks
BackupChain also supports disks mounted that are stored remote, such as iSCSI or a UNC path mounted VHDX. By copying a disk to a remote disk on another server, the backup server can be booted in case there is a total hardware failure. Virtual disks can also be a great way to achieve the same effect on a smaller budget.
Disk Mirroring Supports Also From and To Virtual Disks
BackupChain can clone disk to disk when virtual disks are involved. For example, BackupChain can duplicate a physical disk to a virtual disk, supporting VHD, VHDX, VMDK, and VDI formats and vice versa. BackupChain also offers virtual to virtual disk conversion, from one format to another. Another strategy is to use mounted VHDs that are mounted via an UNC path and actually stored elsewhere on another server. BackupChain treats such mounted disks as physical disks and supports disk to disk transfer between them as well.
Copy Multiple Disks and RAID Arrays Simultaneously
Many times you may have a service, such as Microsoft SQL Server or Exchange Server, which uses several disks on the same server. For example, the software itself may be on Disk #0, your Windows Server system disk, data may be on disk #1, which is your data RAID array, and disk #2 stores log files. All three disks will have to be copied simultaneously in order to prevent consistency issues. These disks cannot be copied or backed up sequentially as this would cause inconsistencies when you do a recovery.
BackupChain allows you to select multiple disks and you can make a copy of each disk or RAID disk array to another defined target. Then BackupChain takes one single snapshot that ensures system-wide consistency. Once all disks are copied, the drive clones receive new identities so there is no name clash at any time. In addition, you can run a verification stage at the end to ensure the target disks are in good shape.
Verification at the File Level and Block Level
Verification of disk copies may be done at the file level to ensure every single file is readable and intact at the target disk. This may be worth considering especially when doing a disk migration once off when you switch hard disks.
