Backupexec 12 to Backupexec 2010 R2/R3
Hi,
This is my first post to the forum. I am fairly new to Backupexec. We have obtained Backupexec 2010 license and presently run on backupexec 12.
I need to upgrade from 12 to 2010. The BE 1...
Option# 2 sounds good and safe. I would suggest you to make a copy of DATA and CATALOGS
folder before and after the upgrade. You need to stop the SQL server BKUPEXEC service before
making a copy of the above folders. Both the folders are located at X:\Programs Files\Symantec\
Backup Exec\
DATA folder contains BE database which has all the jobs, policies and settings.
CATALOGS folder has all the catalogs generated by the backups.
After upgrading OS and installing BE again you will have import BE database, you may refer to
the below link.

If you want to take a backup of Exchange 2010 then BE2010 has to be installed on 64 bit server.
