NBMR Overview

NBMR is a Bare Machine Recovery solution that allows EMC NetWorker users to recover machines directly from their NetWorker backups.

In the event of a server failure, NBMR will automatically recover the operating system and applications so that no additional backup needs to be performed, and no additional storage or network bandwidth is required.

This means that, unlike other BMR products, no separate backup application needs to be installed, managed and monitored.

NBMR is sold by EMC and leading partners worldwide.

to virtual and Cloud machines. NBMR allows you to easily achieve your recovery RTOs and

RPOs Provides an exactly identical machine. Restores to any point in time that is available in NetWorker.
