DLO backup to tape

[Peterpan]

Is it possible to run a DLO backup to tape? and is it possible to install a Remote Agent for Windows Server to XP computers?

Yes, you can backup DLO's Network folder using Backup Exec. You can also install remote agent on XP machines, and the good thing is it does not need to be licensed. Both options are supported. But, DLO software cannot backup to tape, it is a disk based solution. So, once DLO has backed up, you can further submit job in Backup Exec.

Please mark it a solution, if this is useful.
Thanks
