Storix® System Backup Administrator Announces Support for SUSE Linux Enterprise 12


Storix, Inc., providers of disaster recovery solutions for Linux and Unix systems, today announced the general availability of System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin) version 8.2.2.0, which includes support for the latest release of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 12.

"From an operating system perspective, SUSE has been working very hard to advance their solutions beyond other Linux vendors," stated Rich Turner, SBAdmin Product Manager. SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 is the first major Linux distribution to embrace btrfs as the default. Btrfs is the next-generation filesystem in use by enterprise-level installations such as Facebook (News - Alert) and TripAdvisor. Not only can SBAdmin provide full-system protection for their mission critical systems, but also using our unique Adaptable Systm Recovery (ASR) process, production systems can be migrated to use btrfs.



Supported New SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 Features:

  • BTRFS filesystem recovery and migration
  • Process and service management with systemd
  • Enhanced Grub2 bootloader support
  • Point-in-time backups of MariaDB databases

Darren Davis, SUSE director of ISV relations, said, "Storix's support for our latest enterprise server solution is important as many SUSE customers have come to rely on the bare-metal recovery capabilities of SBAdmin to protect mission-critical applications running on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server."
