- Backup and recovery recommendations for the integration of Data Protector Software and Microsoft SQL Server 2005
- Backup and recovery recommendations for the LTO tape, the disk-to-disk, and the virtual tape methodologies
- The impact on database performance and throughput for each of the methodologies: LTO tape, disk-to-disk, and virtual tape
- General recommendations for selecting which backup and recovery method to use
- Supporting configuration recommendations for HP servers and for HP StorageWorks 8100 Enterprise Virtual Array (EVA8100) disk array
