DLO

[_Shk_]

Hi All,

Could you assist on this.

If DLO can backup data (include email) to PST file, real time?

How about Desktop and Laptop Option, does it fits on our requirement?

Requirements:

            1. Email Backup from end user workstations (Email Hosting Company doesn’t allow third party software to be installed in their server)

            2. We would like to explore Desktop and Laptop Option capabilities and features to benefit our Company. We all also like to know the requirements and advantages on setting up Desktop and Laptop Option, like:

                        -Host Computer Specification

                        -HDD Capacity, what are the backup file format, is it compressed?

                        -Security thru AD?

                        -etc.

Thanks in advance..

1) Yes, DLO can backup .pst files. This can be backed up either via the MAPI incremental method or via the VSS method.

2) These links with help with the system requirements/compatibility:-

Compatibility Matrix - http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH223518

Admin Guide - http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=DOC7580

Pg 21 lists the system requirements.

3) The backup files are encrypted using 254-bit AES and stored in the native file format itself.

4) DLO relies on sharing and security ACLs for access to the storage locations and backup files. And DLO requires a domain environment to work.
