Congratulations! Now you can use DataVard OutBoard DataTiering for data archiving.
After installation, the next basic step is to determine which data you should archive. OutBoard DataTiering can automatically help you analyze this, based on best practices from other companies and the size of your database tables. You can immediately archive your data based on this analysis, or you can step in and manually select the data you wish to archive. We will show you how to perform these functions in the following section.
