Hi
we are upgrading our Backup Exec for Windows Small Business Edition 9.1 (currently running on windows SBS 2000 which includes SQL and Exchange)
to Backup Exec for Windows Small Business Edition Premium 12.5
Currently version 9.1 has a Intelligent Disaster Recovery (IDR) option included (- not sure how intelligent, but thats another story ;)
This allows me to boot from a CD and restore from tape to a blank server - all be it one of the similar/same hardware config.
I believe if I purchase Backup Exec System Recovery 8.5 Server edition as well as Backup Exec for Windows Small Business Edition Premium 12.5
I would get the same functionality plus restoring to alternative hardware and a host of other virtual options which I'm not interested in.
Within the Backup Exec System Recovery 8.5 Server manual on page 14, it states:
And for a lower priced, streamlined version of Backup Exec System Recovery,
consider Backup Exec for Windows Servers System Recovery Option. This software
is built specifically for Backup Exec for Windows Servers customers. Included are
the necessary components to back up and recover Windows computers. It gives
you the same recovery power of Backup Exec System Recovery without some of
the other features available with the full version of Backup Exec System Recovery.
Try as I might I cannot find the product option called Backup Exec for Windows Servers System Recovery
to add to Backup Exec for Windows Small Business Edition Premium 12.5
Can anyone shed any light on the subject?
Regards
Oliver
