R1Soft's disk and volume snapshot infrastructure for Linux provides comprehensive data protection for open files. Backup active disks and files using standard network file and image backup routines. You get complete, non-disruptive protection of all data on Linux for today's most critical applications such as email, web servers, database and transaction servers.

R1Soft Hot Copy is an enabling technology that creates coherent, point-in-time snapshots of the data contained on a file system or disk volume. Instead of attempting to backup the active volume(s), backup applications will backup the static snapshot presented by R1Soft Hot Copy. Activity on the disk continues uninterrupted, files are modified, added, deleted while the backup application transfers the data presented by the Hot Copy to tape or disk.
