Restoration procedures are fast and simple. Administrators can choose between full-system or individual file restoration.

JETserve is installed with just a few easy steps. The administrator runs a simple NLM installation utility and JETserve is operational. No need to use a workstation.

Since JETserve only performs full-system backups, commencing backup jobs is also simple. Administrators need only to choose from six menu options. There is no need to select specific files or directories. Backup jobs can be immediate, or scheduled to run unattended for a specific date and time.

An easy-to-read Activity Display lists the status of each job. With just a glance, administrators can check the time elapsed, megabytes transferred, megabytes remaining, transfer speed, and estimated completion time. There is even a graph of the backup status. JETserve's Quick Find feature can search the backup directories for individual files at a speed of 40,000 files per second. Once found, these files are restored quickly, due to the file catalog created on each tape set.

To achieve very high speeds, JETserve connects directly to the server bus, bypasses the file system and reads directly from the disk. This, combined with a multi-threaded NLM, allows data to be transferred at rates of 40 plus GB per hour when properly configured with high-speed tapes.
