Glossary

agent

An agent is a software program that performs the task of gathering information as a background task.

AppAssure

AppAssure is the old name for Rapid Recovery, which is software that combines backup, replication, and recovery in a single solution that is engineered to be the fastest and most reliable backup for protecting virtual machines and physical and cloud environments.

Configuration Wizard

The Configuration Wizard is another name for the DocRetriever for SharePoint Service Database Creation Wizard. This wizard installs a local instance of a SQL Server database which contains indexing data and stored procedures used by DocRetriever. After the DocRetriever console is installed, this wizard automatically launches when you open the DocRetriever console. You can also run this wizard from the DocRetriever console by selecting Run Configuration Wizard from the Settings menu.

Core

The Rapid Recovery Core is the central component of the Rapid Recovery architecture. The Core provides the essential services for backup, recovery, retention, replication, archiving, and management.

DocRetriever Agent

DocRetriever Agent is the software component of DocRetriever for SharePoint that assists in the collection of data from the front-end web server.The presence of DocRetriever Agent lets you restore data using the DocRetriever Console.

DocRetriever Console

The DocRetriever Console is a Web-based interface that lets you open SharePoint data, browse through the data (in a user interface similar to SharePoint), and restore data in the restore direction you specify. If restoring in place, you must specify duplicate actions.

DocRetriever for SharePoint Service Database Creation Wizard

See Configuration Wizard.

Duplicate actions

Duplicate actions are restore parameters that the DocRetriever administrator selects when restoring data to determine whether the data being restored should overwrite existing data, whether they should be added as duplicate objects, or whether the data objects in the backup should be skipped or ignored during the restore process. Duplicate actions apply to data restored in place.

ISO image

An ISO image is an archive file (or disk image) of an optical disc. It is composed of the data contents of every written sector of an optical disc, including the optical disc file system, and is stored in a non-compressed format.

License Portal

The Rapid Recovery License Portal is a web-based interface where users and partners can download software, register DL series backup appliances, and manage license subscriptions. License Portal users can register accounts, download and add Cores and Agents, manage groups, track group activity, register machines, register appliances, invite users, and generate reports. For more information, see the Rapid Recovery License Portal User Guide, found on the Rapid Recovery documentation website at https://support.quest.com/rapid-recovery/technical-documents.

Local Mount Utility

The Local Mount Utility (LMU) is a downloadable application that lets you mount a recovery point on a remote Rapid Recovery Core from any machine.

MDF file extension

The .MDF file extension is a Media Disc image File, a format similar to an .ISO file. The MDF file may hold the contents of an optical disc (such as a CD or a DVD) or a SQL Server database.

A protected machine, sometimes referred to as an agent, is a physical computer or virtual machine that is protected in the DocRetriever Core. The machine must first have the DocRetriever agent software installed.

Rapid Recovery

Rapid Recovery (formerly AppAssure) is software that combines backup, replication, and recovery in a single solution that is engineered to be the fastest and most reliable backup for protecting virtual machines and physical and cloud environments.

Recovery point

A recovery point is a collection of snapshots of various disk volumes (for example, C:, D:, and E:) saved by Rapid Recovery to the repository specifed in the Core.

Remote Core

A remote core is a Rapid Recovery Core that is located offsite, to which the enterprise replicates recovery points or backup data. It is accessed using the web-based Rapid Recovery Core Console.

Restore direction

DocRetriever includes two restore directions: in place and out of place. Restoring an object in place from a backup ensures the data is restored in the same location within the web application, and overwrites any existing data in the current SharePoint repository with the backup data, Restoring an object out of place creates a duplicate of the backed up data in the existing SharePoint web application, migrating it to a new site collection.

SharePoint Farm

A SharePoint farm (or SharePoint server farm) is a collection of SharePoint servers or SQL servers that work in concert to provide a set of basic SharePoint services that support a single site. Each farm has its own central configuration database managed through either a PowerShell interface or a Central Administration web-based console.

Snapshot

A snapshot is a point-in-time copy of the folders and files for the volumes on a computer protected by Rapid Recovery. The snapshot data is transferred to and stored in the repository as a recovery point. When you first add a machine to the Rapid Recovery Core as a protected machine, Rapid Recovery saves a snapshot called a base image, which includes all data in the protected volume. Subsequent images are incremental snapshots, which includes all data updated since the last snapshot.

STSADM

Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 includes the StsAdm tool for command-line administration of Office SharePoint Server 2007 servers and sites. Presumably this acronym can be defined as SharePoint Site Administration.
