Backup Multiple Servers

[balcarras]

I have around 17 servers to backup - mainly D:\ and E:\ drives with the OS being backed up using vRanger.

Some of the servers are physical but the majority are virtual.

I want to create a weekly full backup job for a server and schedule it to run, say at 4pm and have the other servers backup jobs run after this.

I cannot see how to schedule the jobs so they run one after another without delay.

Each server will have differing selections.

Please advise.

I am using Backup Exec 2014

Hello Balcaras,

   In BE 2014 you can create backup job for any one server and while creating the job click on Edit under Resources column. It will open another window where on the left side you will see the name of the server for which you are creating the job.

Below that is the "+" sign from where you can add more servers to be backed up in the same job. Here one by one you can add all your 17 servers and for each server you can select the individual resources that you may want to backup.

Thanks,

That looks like it might be it - I'll give it a try....

Just curious, are you backing up to tape? Or is this a bandwidth concern?
