License- need information
we have enough Backup Exec 15 licenses of “Agent for Windows” but not “Agent for Applications and Databases”. We wonder the consequences of only having Agent for Windows license for backing up the below server types:
- SharePoint Farm
- Exchange
- Microsoft SQL Database cluster
- Active Directory Domain Controller
If we just need file-level restoration of SQL DB, AD DB, Exchange DB and SharePoint DB (i.e. do not need mail-level, user object restoration, database record restoration, etc.), could we just use Agent for Windows for the servers?
Agent for Application and Database license is required if you want backup applications like Active Directory, Exchange, SQL Databases, etc.
With Agent for Windows you can just backup & restore flat files and folders but not live Exchange or SQL DB's.
