I am in the process of testing a solution for backing up a Microsoft Sharepoint Server and would like to install the Commvault agent for this to test. Is anyone familiar with it and does it have advantages over AVEpoint. Can I install the Commvault IDA Agent witout having to purchase it to test?
I was wondering if anyone has attempted this? I am about to try this in our lab to test its feasibility for a DR test which I am doing in April. Although I've never had to do a full agent restore to the same hardware I suspect it should work. However due to our DR contract they are providing...
