A Web-Based Backup/Restore Method for Intel-based PC's

چکیده
This paper describes two similar user-initiated methods to backup and restore PC workstations over an ethernet network. The first method concerns ‘‘PC Hardware All Alike,’’ or the backup and restoring of sets of identical disk images across many identical systems. The second method is the backup and restoring of ‘‘PC Hardware All Different,’’ which manages unique disk images on individual systems. This paper describes the installation and customization of a ‘‘controlling’’ unix partition on each client system PC platform. The purpose of the unix partition is to quickly backup and restore Windows and OS/2 disk images on a separate partition on the client system hard drive. The web page interface is used to schedule the image backups and restores. The unix server that supports the backup and restore process is described, along with the scripts that control the backup and restore process. Usage statistics are generated that can quantify the cost benefits of the backup and restore method.

A Network Differential Backup and Restore System based on a Novel Duplicate Data Detection algorithm
The ever-growing volume and value of data has raised increasing pressure for long-term data protection in storage systems. Moreover, the redundancy in data further aggravates such pressure in these systems. It has become a serious problem to protect data while eliminating data redundancy, saving storage space and network bandwidth as well. Data deduplication techniques greatly optimize storage ...

In this paper, we proposed a new technique for backing up and restoring different Database Management Systems (DBMS). The technique is enabling to backup and restore a part of or the whole database using a unified interface using ASP.NET and XML technologies. It presents a Web Solution allowing the administrators to do their jobs from everywhere, locally or remotely. To show the importance of o...
متن کاملMultipath Node-Disjoint Routing with Backup List Based on the AODV Protocol
In recent years, routing has been the most focused area in ad hoc networks research. On-demand routing in particular, is widely developed in bandwidth constrained mobile wireless ad hoc networks because of its effectiveness and efficiency. Most proposed on-demand routing protocols are built and relied on single route for each data session. Whenever there is a link disconnection on the active ro...
متن کاملA design of self-healing ATM networks based on backup virtual paths
We propose a design of self-healing ATM virtual path (VP) networks based on backup VP. The backup VP is a preassigned virtual path to restore the traffic after a network failure. It is known that the self-healing scheme based on the backup VP is simple, fast and easy to implement. Given a set of bandwidth requirements and original routes for target demands, the design is to find the backup rout...
متن کاملAlternate Data Streams in Forensic Investigations of File Systems Backups
Backup utilities for the Windows environment are designed to work with the NTFS file format, but they typically provide only partial compatibility with Alternate Data Streams (ADSs). In particular, computer forensics tools are typically capable of discovering ADSs in the file system under investigation, but not necessarily in the backups of such file systems. We examined a number of commonly us...
