IBM® Tivoli® Continuous Data Protection for Files is continuous backup software that protects your most important files.

This real-time, continuous data protection solution for file servers and user endpoints automatically backs up your most critical files the moment they are saved.
- To help you capture every save of a file when it occurs and protect against corruption, file loss or system loss, you can specify as many as three target backup/replication ares for high-priority files.
- To minimize the backup/recovery window, this continuous data backup software uses rapid disk-to-disk protection and restore capabilities.
- To optimize recovery point objectives (RPO) and recovery time objectives (RTO).
- It retains data files for predefined lengths of time, and version the separate copies of the files to facilitate date-based restore.
- Easy to implement and manage, it runs transparently in the background with a light footprint.
- Working with multiple backup/replication targets (local disk, web, file server, NAS device, Tivoli Storage Manager), you can specify a remote file server or Tivoli Storage Manager for off-machine protection when a user is connected, so real-time backup still occurs.
- Deleting old versions of files to make room for new versions, it auto-manages the local backup target area as a pool with a configurable size.
- Supports IPv6
