The process of merging a restore chain of a backup object,
consisting of a full backup and at least one incremental backup,
into a new, consolidated version of this object. The process is
a part of the synthetic backup procedure. The result is a synthetic
full backup of the specified backup object.
A process that merges a restore chain of a backup object,
consisting of a full backup and at least one incremental backup,
into a new, consolidated version of this object.
A copy of a specific object version that is created during an
object copy session or a backup session with object mirroring.
A process that creates an additional copy of the backed up data
on a different media set. During an object copy session, the
selected backed up objects are copied from the source to the
target media.
The process of copying selected object versions to a specific
media set. You can select object versions from one or several
backup sessions to be copied.
(Windows specific term) The object IDs (OIDs) enable access
to NTFS 5 files no matter where in the system the files reside.
Data Protector treats the OIDs as alternate streams of the files.
A copy of a backup object created using object mirroring.
Object mirrors are often referred to as object copies.
The process of writing the same data to several media sets
during a backup session. Data Protector enables you to mirror
all or some backup objects to one or more media sets.
A backup during which an application database cannot be
used by the application.

For simple backup methods (non ZDB), the database is
generally put into a quiescent state that allows use by the
backup system, but not the application, for the whole backup
