BL/PACK

Comprehensive Disk Pack Management

BL/PACK provides a complete file backup, archiving, and disaster recovery mechanism. Used in hundreds of Unisys A-Series sites, including many of Unisys' own production facilities, this system has the features needed for secure backups.

Why should you consider BL/PACK?

Tape Duplication Process
Make copies of any BL/PACK backup tape to minimize the risk when using high-density media (if the original tape is not available, BL/PACK will automatically prompt the operator for the duplicate).

Long Node-Named File Handling
Backup long-named server files along with the standard A-Series files.

Enhanced File Attribute Handling
Ensure all the critical files are copied and restored with all their new file attributes.

More Effective

  • Has multi-threaded pack and directory recovery
  • Enables comprehensive disaster recovery planning
  • Can restore full pack families or any directory by title and effective date
  • Can scan all backed-up/archived files for easy identification and recovery

More Efficient

  • Reclaims pack space by removing unused files after copying them to tape
  • Substantially reduces tape usage vs. library/maintenance
  • Minimizes tape usage by merging tapes to eliminate "dead" files

More Control

  • Files or directories may be excluded from reclamation
  • Backs up current versions of files
  • Produces and tracks tapes for off-site storage
  • Supports incremental and/or full-pack backups
  • Allows the retention of backup versions to be specified at any directory level
  • Controls system access via usercode privilege parameters
