Backup exec appliance

[pgdi]

Kindly advise us , our customer  will implement  Hyper-v High Availability so he will need Storage for this ,in the other hand he will use Backup Exec as Backup Solution .

We asked if he  can replace the original Storage (HP  storage ) with Symantec Appliance or not , and this will be good solution or not.

...if you're looking for an appliance that includes the backup software, the relevant licenses, and 5.5TB of dedupe space, then the BE 3600 is a consideration.

you cannot use a backupexec appliance to replace your SAN storage.

the appliance has internal storage only for backup purposes.

To backup that HA hyper v cluster you can use an appliance yes. But I think what you mean is to store the hyper v on the appliance as well...that is not possible, the appliance storage is for backup purposes only.
