Backup exec appliance

Kindly advise us , our customer  will implement  Hyper-v High Availability so he will need Storage for this ,in the other hand he will use Backup Exec as Backup Solution .

 

We asked if he  can replace the original Storage (HP  storage ) with Symantec Appliance or not , and this will be good solution or not.

 

 

  • you cannot use a backupexec appliance to replace your SAN storage.

    the appliance has internal storage only for backup purposes.

  • To backup that HA hyper v cluster you can use an appliance yes. But I think what you mean is to store the hyper v on the appliance as well...that is not possible, the appliance storage is for backup purposes only.
