Backup Exec - copy mode backup
Hi,
I am running Backup Exec 2012 on a windows server. Backups are run every 3 hours using Backup Exec System Recovery 2010 to a NAS. These backups are incremental, therefore relying on the files...
Be 2012 does not have a copy backup method. However, if you dont want to modify the archivebit, you could perform the backup using modified time from Backup Exec.
Another issue that you might face is while BE and SSR are performing backups simultaneously as they both perform snapshot backups. And certain applications like Exchange would pose an issue as Exchange VSS writers only allow 1 snapshot backup at a time.

In general I would suggest you to ensure that the backup windows from different backup solutions do not run at the same time. You might want to space them in such a way that they don't run at the same time.
