1. Protect by policy
Select clients and files, then combine scheduled or on-demand jobs with full, differential, incremental, Virtual Full, or Always Incremental workflows.
2. Retain where it fits
Use pools, retention, pruning, recycling, copy, and migration jobs across disk, tape, and configured S3-compatible storage.
3. Find through the catalog
Browse jobs, directories, files, versions, media, and storage relationships through catalog metadata instead of searching volumes manually.
4. Restore where needed
Recover selected files or directories to the original system, an alternate path, or another configured client, with controlled replace behavior.
What the operator sees
Job history, available versions, a browsable file tree, restore destination, replace policy, and the resulting recovery job.
What NQRust coordinates
The Director controls the job and catalog. Normal backup and restore payload moves directly between the protected system and the Storage Daemon.
