This forum is for Sun Solaris (i.e. Unix) RAID solutions, so you're asking in the wrong place.

Having said that, Veritas Volume Manager is very good software RAID which can be used on many Unix platforms and Windows, so that might be worth a look.

It's ok now. I managed to instal RAID Manager for Solaris. Would you please advice any back-up software?

For a Solaris system?

Solaris SPARC 9

It depends very much on how big the system is, what device(s) you want to back up to, etc... you could use anything from standard utilities like tar, cpio, ufsdump up to network based backup tools like Legato Networker and Veritas NetBackup.

thanks alot. and one more question
Can you advice any software to evaluate input-output capasity of A1000 storage, for solaris sparc 9. Drive I/O speed e.t.c.
It's said in technical characteristic that A1000 can work with 36 gb drives Ultra SCSI 160. but we plugged 72 gb drives Ultra SCSI 320 and it work as well ... nice )

I think SunVTS has tools for benchmarking and testing I/O, although I haven't used them myself:
