I'm trying to figure out if it is possible to perform bare metal restore to a physical computer using backups taken by Backup Exec agent for VMware From the documentation that I read it looks like VM backups store VMDK files inside. So in order to p...

We had a major issue when our VM guy updates the converter to version 4.0; we had to revert to version 3.0.2 to get backups to work again. Now, it seems, there is a virtual center update that rolls version 4 of converter into it; he tells me there is...

Hi, We´re usin BE 12.5 but no AVVI, just plain old VCB for now. I believe there´s a "-F 1" or "-F 0" switch that can tell vcbmount to compress the vmdk files (equivalent to the AVVI option "Use VCB compact for VMDK files") as to optimize disk space o...
Hi,When I back up a live/on vm and restore it, I would get an unplanned shutdown message after logging it. Is this normal?
I want to run the VCB right on the Backup Exec media server. Do I need to configure the VCB in any way or do I just need to install it? Thanks.
