So if a server dies and i need to buy a new one, is a full windows backup not enough to get the server back up as it was?

Hi Guys, Thanks for the replies. At the moment anything that involves extra cost is not an option. We use BackupExec and CommVault. I must be be able to fully recover a server from a full backup from these vendors. Cheers.

Guys, Is it possible for an email archiving job to dump the archived items to a pst file in Simpana7? Thanks

It seems that you can't back up a cv_magnetic folder or its subfolders/files with a windows IDA. The subclient content is E:\archive which houses my exchange mailbox archiver data (1 Tb) but the job only takes a minute to run and if i view what has been backup up, only a few files in...

Thanks for the replies

Thanks for the reply. I cant see an index column but im guessing one is created each time an archive operation is ran, which is daily. Maybe a weekly archive would be a better option. Youve put my mind at rest though, thanks

Hi Birky, I can set the policy criteria to export tapes that are marked as full but its how do i mark them as full. The policy doesn't have an option to do that. I was hoping that i could set a backup job or storage policy to mark the media as full. Cheers

Guys, We have VT standard and i would like to mark media as full after a backup job. I will then schedule a VT policy to run daily to export all media that matches the criteria of 'Full' Can media be marked as full automatically or do i have to do this manually?
