BRU LE is a tool that provides a very reliable backup on standalone OS X systems. It is licensed for commercial use and delivers industrial-strength data backup and restore services.
A breadth of target devices, including hard disk are supported as well as tape technology. Native tape support of all tape formats is provided and support of autoloaders containing 1 drive and up to 10 slots.Bar code support is also provided. Remote system volumes can be AFP/SMB/NFS mounted and properly backed-up and restored.
Leadership by Design
The core of BRU LE is the venerable BRU I/O engine - designed to accurately and successfully restore data rather than simply back it up. This philosophical design sets BRU solutions apart from other backup tools and has a most profound affect on the recoverability of archived data during a restore.
Unlike other tools, BRU LE for Mac OS X will not abort a restore unless the backup has become physically impossible to read. Any corrupt data experienced during a restore is reported, circumvented, and the restore is continued. Getting your data back when it is most needed is what BRU LE for Mac OS X is all about.
Leadership Performance
BRU LE for Mac OS X is an elegantly designed low resource application. Its small "footprint" and very low overhead supports very high throughput rates. This means that backup operations can be performed at any time, eliminating the requirement to carefully schedule backups because of their impact on system availability and performance.
Flexibility
Because not all user requirements are alike, BRU LE for Mac OS X can also be used from the command line interface to customize operation to the exact requirement of the business.
BRU LE for Mac OS X works with SCSI, Fibre-Channel, USB and FireWire tape drives and SCSI and Fibre Channel-connected single drive tape autoloaders with up to 10 slots. Providing native tape device support, no costly software drivers are needed.
All removable disk technology is also supported including: Magneto-Optical (MO) devices, Zip(tm), and more. Additionally, BRU LE will back up to disk-based archive files (D2D).
