This unique architecture enables end-to-end server visibility, management, and control in both bare metal and virtual environments. As you guys might remember, Symantec NetBackup is the first and only enterprise backup solution to achieve Cisco’s official Interoperability Verification Testing (IVT) certification for its superior scale and agility to protect workloads on both virtual and bare metal configurations.

Whether you are deploying UCS with your own choices of storage or consuming it as part of popular converged infrastructure solutions like NetApp FlexPod or VCE VBLOCK, there is more great news for Cisco UCS customers. Symantec NetBackup now announces protection for Cisco UCS service profiles thereby enabling end-to-end coverage for UCS based data center across bare-metal, virtualized and converged deployments.

What is a UCS service profile? A service profile for UCS server is like a SIM card for cell phone. The identity of a given logical server and its resources are encapsulated on this logical entity. Protecting UCS Service Profile is an important step in ensuring business continuity and disaster recovery for UCS based data centers. The service profiles recovered from backups enable you to recreate UCS domain during site recovery.
