GRBackPro Server Backup Software Description

GRBackPro

data server backup software

for Windows 7/Server 2008/Vista/Server 2003/XP is a professional Unicode

backup software

designed to quickly and easily solve any data backup problem at a low cost. This 32 bits software version has been carefully designed to meet the new Windows 7 security specifications and supports 64 bits systems too. To take full advantage of any new Windows features this version requires Windows XP as a minimum version. A new and customizable look and feel has been designed to make your experience even better than before. With this powerful backup software, you can define multiple backup sessions each having different backup jobs. A backup Job lets you back up a whole disk, a single folder or few selected files. GRBackPro supports network shares, hard drives, CD, DVD-RW, DVD-RAM, CD-RW (if you have a packet write driver) and all removable drives but no Tapes. You can perform a full backup, an incremental (update) backup or a differential backup (based on the archive attribute bit). You can simply copy your files or compress them inside standard Zip or Zip64 (if your files are bigger than 4GB) archives so that you can easily handle them using any archiver utility. With the Server Backup edition you can install the software as a Windows Service to have your backups start even if no users are logged in. GRBackPro has an integrated scheduler to make your backup automatically start without your intervention. This new version supports Windows Volume Shadow Copy so that you will be able to backup opened and locked files. Another new feature allows you to handle long path names up to 1024 characters. If you have any Unicode file names GRBackPro will manage them preserving your language characters even inside the zip archives. GRBackPro is able to span multiple destination disks so that you can easily build a multi disk backup set. GRBackPro supports Split mode to easily burn DVDs after the backup has been completed (this is a fast alternative to using packet write software drives). GRBackPro supports History mode that allows you to keep as many backup copies as you want. An integrated restore facility allows you to easily restore your files or whole backups and also quickly maintain two or more PC aligned (Synchronization). With this backup software you can execute one or more tasks before and/or after the backup. This allows you, for example, to stop services that are locking files you want to back up and then restart them when the backup is completed. Other tasks that are possible are to close an application, start a program, start and stop a service, pause the backup, issue a message box, end a process or send an email. This last facility lets you have your backup log report sent to your mailbox if any error has been found in the backup. GRBackPro lets you backup your registry files both locally (for an easy manual restore) or on the destination disk. A new automatic software update facility allows you to easily update your software. GRBackPro can be setup to check for updates at program start or scheduled the way you prefer. GRBackPro is a fully featured backup software with many professional and server options built to solve any data backup problem. Although GRBackPro is a professional server backup software it is also suitable for inexperienced users because it integrates a Backup Wizard that guides the user in setting up the program option.

DVD and CD support for GRBackPro Server Backup Software

GRBackPro cannot directly write to a DVD-R, CD-R nor a DVD-RW, DVD-RAM, CD-RW media because it cannot sustain the minimum data rate the DVD/CD drive requires. You may, however, install a packet write software so that you will be able to use GRBackPro to back up to a DVD-RW or CD-RW media like you normally do to a floppy. This software driver virtualizes the DVD-RW or CD-RW media allowing ANY application to read and write to the DVD/CD media without any limitation to the data rate. GRBackPro can write to packet write formatted DVD-R, CD-R or DVD-RW, CD-RW media and span on multiple disks if your source files does not fit in a single DVD-R, CD-R or DVD-RW, CD-RW.

Examples of packet write software drives are: Sonic DLA and Nero InCD.
You can find them at http://www.sonic.com or http://www.nero.com

We however do not suggest you to directly backup to Rewritable CD or DVD because they are not as reliable as you may think. A better method is to backup to a folder of your hard disk and then employ any burning software and store the whole backup in a CD-R or DVD-R. This will result in quicker operations, no need to buy any additional software and finally a more reliable backup set.

TECH NOTE: we have seen that the a CD writer device that can read at high speed (>=30x) but write at 2x, 4x, 8x, 10x, 16x can still be slow when you execute an Incremental backup. This is due to the fact that this backup mode needs to frequently switch from write to read and back to write. As the normal CD writer read speed is high the CD writer has to change the spin rotation of the CD and thus every time the backup software switches from write to read and vice-versa the CD writer has to spend additional time to change the spin rotation and wait for it to stabilize. To overcome this problem you have to change your packet write driver settings in order to set a read speed near or equal to the write speed.
