Hi All,
I got EV configured and working. I'm configuring a backup plan now. Got an issue with backup. See below what is done so far.
Please help if I am missing something. Thank you

Hi mate,
Try the following to disable BE EV agent on the EV server (both cluster nodes);
1. Stop BE Remote Agent service
2. Re-name "bedsev.dll" located under C:\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\
3. Start the BE Remote Agent for Windows service
4. EV Indexes and Vault Stores should be available for selection now
Let me know how it works.

Great! Not sure if it's a bug or not in BE, but if BE client detects that EV is installed on a server, it creates that file which prevents you from backing up EV using the standard Windows agent.
Please mark the post as a solution. Cheers.

Okay. Does that maen BE will still reset Archive bit on files once backed up?
If not, should I use trigger file mechanism as per EV documentation?
Thanks

Never mind of my last question
BE has got an option to change backup job mode to use Archive Bit instead of Changed Date (default). Used that, took a full backup of Enterprise Vault in sync (run script, backup db, backup store and index, run script). Archive bit got cleared from existing files. Ran archive task on one mailbox and those shortcut, which were archived before, changed the icon confirming it is Archived by Enterprise Vault.
Thanks for all help I got here.
