Hello, It would be nice it Backup Exec could hide the unselected servers in the selection list. Excellent to have if most of the computers in the list are computers located in other cities. Best regards,Bengt Nilsson, Datafant AB, Sweden
Hello, It would be excellent if it was possible to get a compact form of the backup-log, if you have a lot of servers (to view and to get via mail). The following list has been extraded from a backup log created by Backup Exec (I have renamed the ori...
