PD DR and Export Questions

[Jazzy_Sam]

Hi

I have a couple of questions you guys might be able to assist with re; DR backup and Export

Does the PureDisk DR backup, backup Exchange and SQL database? (I would assume so due to it backing up the de-duped data)

Can you Export Exchange and SQL?

Can you Export Clients with a Data Lock Password?

Also, Can you replicate Exchange And SQL and Clients with a data lock password.

If you can assist with any questions, please let me know.

Thanks

Jazzy, I believe when we say "DR backup" we mean backing up the PureDisk itself.

A "DR backup" is not for clients/agents - SQL/Exchange - we just do normal PureDisk backup for those.

To your other questions, as the PureDisk Admin Guide manual says,

1. export exchange and sql

I guess you mean export the Exchange backup and SQL backup to NetBackup.

Answer is no - you can only export files and folders type of dataselection to NetBackup.

2. export DS with Data Lock password

No.

3. replicate SQL/Exchange with Data Lock password

Yes.

Replication is not subject to DS type, so SQL/Exchange is fine.

Data Lock password is only for restore (and NetBackup export is in fact simply a restore) so shouldn't affect replication.
