The ability to perform a mailbox backup or restore using backup exec has been around since version 7.0 or earlier, that is at least 5 years. It can will increase the amount of data to be backed up by 5X or more. May work fine with smaller mail servers but is not feasible in a large environment

Think of backup environments as sorted by size. As a rough guesstimate, and I'm sure people have different opinions on sizing, NTBackup is for 1 machine. Backup Exec is good for 1-10, maybe even 20 machines. Veritas NetBackup is good for 10-50 machines. (Is anybody having a good time wi

I've always thought of NTBackup as the push scooter. I think Backup Exec is more like a Vespa (with apologies to Vespa owners). Much cheaper and easier to operate than TSM for one user, only able to move one type of cargo (NT data, and that in small quantities), and much more likely to

Backup Exec backing up to TSM?

A few questions related to the above-mentioned: 1. How does TSM handle data that was backed up from a Backup Exec client? 2. Do you register that node on TSM? 3. Can you generate a backup set for that node? 4. Does versioning of files apply to that node? Any comments will be greatly

Yes. Backup Exec has a TSM interface that will do just what you describe. I tested it a couple of years ago, worked fine. (We ended up not using it because there was just too much data to send across our network at the time, but that was a network issue, not a problem with the Backup Exec

The answer is yes. You need to define a storage pool for the BE on the TSM server. See the module for this on the Veritas site. Mike > -Original Message- > From: Jacques Butcher [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: â éðåàø 16 2001 8:34 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject:

Can Backup Exec be setup in such a way that it sends data off to TSM without having a storage device locally attached to the server it's running on? I.e. TSM handles the backup device (library) as well as manage all the volumes. Any comments will be greatly appreciated Jacques Butcher.
