DR File location

Hi

I have a 5220 appliance for our backups - other than that everything else is Windows.

I think I read that Linux cannot save a DR file onto windows files servers - is that correct?

if so how do I save it to an alternative server - I don't want to save it on the appliance itself as this may be an issue if the Appliance suffers a disaster.

 

thanks

    This should help you getting DR file mailed

    http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH188948

    Copy of DR is also mailed if BLAT is configured for mail notifications.

    There are possibilities of recovering NBU without DR file but WITH CATALOG backups in place.

    Hope above helps

    Thanks very much

    I was able to find a location that I could create as an NFS share so all good now - but thanks all the same
