Remote Agent for Mac DL

[tha]

Hi all users and techs.

I have been serching for a place where I can DL the BE Remote Agent for Mac.
Im sure I'll get it if I DL the full BE SBS, but I just need the agent.

Anyone here that can point me in the right direction?

Thanks
Thomas

What version of backup exec are you running ?

Hi,

This is the link for the remote agent for Mac, but it doesn't look like there is a link for the 2010 agent. Looks like you'll have to get it from the installation DVD.

I guess there is not seperate link for MAC agent download .You would need to download the ISO for backup exec and At the root of the ISO you will find a folder called "LINUX_UNIX_MAC" it contains the installables of Linux, Unix, MAC agent. Refer to the below link.

...you'll have to get the remote agent installation from the installation DVD unfortunately...

But when I look at the features for the BE 2010 it doesn't say anything about the Mac support.

Same page just for BE 2010 SBS and it says:

 

High-powered Backup Exec remote Agents and Options extend data protection to Linux, Unix, Mac and Netware environments

Do you know if it's a SBS feature or if it's in the BE 2010 version too?

...always check the Software Compatibility list...this shows what sofware is supported.

In your case, pg. 37 of the BE 2010 SCL shows Apple Mac OS X is supported, with 10.4 and 10.5 being supported by BE 2010 R1/R2/R3, and OSX 10.6 only supported on BE 2010 R3...

The capability to backup a Mac machine is built into BE.  The SBS edition of BE is just the way Symantec package some capabilities together.  To backup a Mac from your BE SBE server, you would need to buy a remote licence for Mac
