We've been working towards a DD environment and have had many meetings with various vendors, not to mention the recent buy-out that put some conversations on hold. I am currently licensed for NB Enterprise 6.5 and started reading about NB PureDisk, and this looks like it might be a good solution, but only a 90% solution. Our environment includes
Windows 2000/2003
Linux
AIX 5.x
Exchange 2003/2007
SQL 2000/2005
Oracle
VMWare
According to the PD datasheet, we can utilize PD as a client side, in-line DD, across our WMWare servers, exchange, sql, windows, and aix, but I am concerned about the support of PD DD for our oracle databases since is it not listed as having a supported agent within PD. I am taking suggestions on how to deploy PD for the supported solutions, as well as thoughts on how to get DD on oracle databases. I was looking into the Symantec OST that works with another vendor, but I am not sure if we want to go that route until we see what comes from the buy-out....
Thoughts?
