VERITAS Software Corp., a storage software company, announced the release of VERITAS NetBackup Storage Migrator(TM) for Windows 2000.
The company said the hierarchical storage management (HSM) solution allows transparent movement of infrequently accessed data to cost-effective media while simultaneously allowing users full access to their files. Additionally, VERITAS Software announced the release of a new version of VERITAS NetBackup Storage Migrator(TM) for Microsoft Exchange (version 3.0), offering automated capability to migrate and recall older e-mail attachments to and from less expensive “near-line” or offline storage.
