NASA Headquarters computer users have access to a fully automated data backup and recovery function for essential data and e-mail files. The Desktop Backup and Recovery Program uses the Tivoli client to periodically backup user data from both desktops and laptops to a server. This will help prevent the loss of data from a hard drive failure or other catastrophic error. A scheduled backup service runs nightly from 8 p.m. to 4 a.m. backing up selected files and folders for Macintosh and Windows computers. Users working during the backup window should notice no significant change in system performance.
