It helps prevent the alteration of busi­

ness records and allows data to be 

rapidly accessible online for long peri­

ods of time. 

SnapLock offers capabilities to help you 

address regulatory and best-practices 

records retention requirements by sup­

porting the creation of non-rewritable, 

non-erasable volumes on IBM N series 

systems. This functionality is designed 

to prevent critical files from being 

altered or deleted until a specified 

retention date. 

SnapLock is also designed to replicate 

non-erasable, non-rewriteable data 

securely and automatically between 

multiple N series systems using 

SnapMirror software. The non-erasable, 

non-rewriteable to non-erasable, 

non-rewriteable replication of data at 

remote sites can help your organization 

address regulatory concerns or best 

practices, resulting in a highly robust 

compliant data protection solution. 

Non-erasable, non-rewriteable data 

can also be backed up to tape for an 

additional level of data protection.
