Great news! Many of you will be thrilled to hear that Backup Express has been Yes! Certified for Novell SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9, Service Pack 1 and Open Enterprise Server (OES) Linux. This is an example of more enterprise progress that will hopefully spill over to the desktop world.

Syncsort has announced that Backup Express, its data protection product, has been YES! Certified with Novell SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9, Service Pack 1 and Open Enterprise Server (OES) Linux. Backup Express was the first solution to offer data protection for clustered OES environments and continues to provide the most reliable Linux support in the data protection market, supporting Novell customers with more backup and recovery features for SLES and OES than any other software vendor. Backup Express includes protection for NSS (Novell Storage Services) volumes and properties on OES and SLES9 systems, and allows users to backup data on NetWare today, and restore it to OES LINUX after they migrate.

Backup Express has unique, strong support for all of Novell’s products, and the two companies are working together to create the next generation of integrated storage solutions. Novell’s OES is the first product to integrate the choice and flexibility of open source software with the power and reliability of proven networking software, combining NetWare, the trusted leader for secure networking services, and SUSE LINUX, a leading open platform for delivering business-level applications. Novell Cluster Services and Business Continuity Clustering for OES are evidence of Novell’s continued commitment to offer high availability services. Source: sys-con
