Network Migrator and MultiStor

MultiStor and Network Migrator use advanced policy management to monitor and automatically migrate less frequently used files stored on distributed servers or clients to a central archive. Regardless of the physical location of the files, they remain fully accessible from their original local file systems.

A combination of file and file system attributes can be used to control the movement of data including: file modification date, file extensions, regular expression searches, and high-water marks. Once defined, data is migrated to the designated storage device and when archive retention dates have been met, files are released for managed or automatic deletion at the end of their lifecycle.

MultiStor and Network Migrator play a strategic role within a 3-2-1 archive by applying management policies to data stored on remote servers and clients. Controlling the number of data copies, their physical locations and retention periods enables organizations to create system resilience, eliminate out of space conditions, reduce over provisioning, and maximize limited IT resources.
