Technical Note: XTN1703
Introduction
When installing antivirus protection on an archive running XenData6 Server, it is important to choose an antivirus (AV) solution that has been certified by XenData. Both XenData6 Server software and AV software use file system filtering techniques and there may be undesirable interactions if you use an AV product that has not been certified.
Certified Options
The Webroot SecureAnywhere Business Endpoint Protection is certified for use with XenData6 Server software running on Windows Server 2012 R2. The only requirement is to be sure to not block the process "XDService.exe", which by default, is not blocked upon installing Webroot SecureAnywhere.
Manual or scheduled scans can be performed on the logical drive under XenData control, as the files will not be restored from tape when scanned by Webroot SecureAnywhere.

- Windows Server 2012 R2

I did my research, and the best archive solution was from XenData which manages a robotic LTO library behind the scenes. This helps to minimize our total costs and allows us to focus on producing great content for our customers.

We partnered with XenData for the GlobeCast Broadcast facility rollout, because it offers one of the most cost effective, robust digital video archives on the market and a great migration alternative to some of the more expensive digital video archive vendor offerings.

With over 558 TB of content and growing, conventional backup solutions just don’t work for us. Our XenData system allows us to maintain an ongoing mirrored copy of our shared storage while creating replica LTO copies for offsite storage.
