Backup Exec 2014 and Symantec Enterprise Vault 10 server backup
- 10 years ago
Hi Michael,
As far as I understood your environment, you have installed Backup Exec 2014 and EV 10.0.4 on the same Win 2008 R2 server. - Not a good idea. It is always suggested to have Backup Application on a seperate server, so that in case of BE server crash you will have your EV running and in case of EV crash you can restore EV using other server where your BE is installed.
However, in BE 2014 we can create a multi server backup job, where we can add more than one server in a single backup job. Hence, as you mentioned that BE console has two servers listed, you can try to add both the servers in a single backup job. Backup the Vault Site, Vault SQL DBs, and Vault Index locations only from the directory server and avoid backing files related to these directly from their physical locations.
