Backup process flow

Hi . Any idea where I can find backup process flow for Backup exec.

Kind of depends on what you are backing up. Some of the flow will be in the admin guide (but probably not the detail you are after)

However if you are more specific about which type of backup (or restore) process you are asking about and what sort of information you are looking for we might be able to answer.

...a normal backup environment with a media server and remote servers will see all data flow from the remote servers through the media server to the backup device.

Using Enterprise Server Option with SAN SSO, each SAN-attached server can backup directly to a SAN-attached tape library for instance if they have a full version of BE installed. Metadata MIGHT flow to the SAN SSO server if it has CASO, but backup data will not as the remote servers access the device directly.

These are 2 examples of data flow.
