7. Web Management - Storage
The UMG-1000 Series storage suite includes the following services: Network Storage
Server, backup/restore, and remote data synchronizing.
NETWORK STORAGE SERVER
The UMG-1000 Series supports Server Message Block (SMB), also known as Common
Internet File System (CIFS) to share files on the private network which can be used for
WINDOWS, Linux/Unix and other operating systems and Network File System (NFS)
clients/servers.
BACKUP AND RESTORE
The UMG-1000 Series will automatically backup storage according to the scheduled time.
The administrator can also backup the current storage manually. The UMG-1000 Series
supports two solutions for backup. One is snapshot and the other is full data copy.
Snapshot is an effectual and space-saving method. It is a picture in time of how the data
was organized rather than a copy of the data. It provides a consistent view of the device,
but it can build a snapshot of the device on and only on the local UMG-1000 Series.
Another way is building a full data copy. It is a safer method to build all your data into a ZIP
file; however, it takes much more storage space because of redundancy. Backup to the
remote SAMBA or NFS server is supported and it is a good choice if you already have a
storage server. It is strongly recommended to enable the feature of auto backup because
the administrator can restore the data to a previous backup when data corruption occurs.
REMOTE DATA SYNCHRONIZATION
Please refer to Section - Remote Data Synchronization.
