It depends on the average size of the TIFF images.  If they’re all little files (which our TIFF files are), then definitely yes, FlashBackup will help.

 

For us, a FlashBackup typically cuts the backup time in half and significantly reduces the load on the system being backed up.  

 

You do individual file restores just like you do regular file restores.

When should FlashBackup be used? I have a Windows Box that I backup daily that has a volume with about 330GB of tiff images. Would FlashBackup be a better option than a regular Windows-NT policy taking into mind that I regularly restore individual tiff images?

 

Best regards,

 

Anas
