I'm running BE2012SP4 and I have a HP MSL8096 tape library about half full (46 tapes). On average, it takes 1.5hrs to perform an inventory. Is this normal? Any way to speed this up? Liek a bar code scan as opposed to loading each tape into a driv...

I have had nothing but drama when it comes to NBU 6.5.3 with Exchange Granular recovery and SharePoint document level recovery. I’ve had several issues with Exchange granular recovery with Exchange 2007 including catalog backups failing and most re...

I would like a clarification on Exchange backups, in particular granular level backups. The doco is not very clear when you read the document update and the Exchange Admin guide. I've read that the granular level backup can replace the mailbox leve...

Thank you all for your comments. I don't need an explanation as to why NFS is used. I wouldn't care as long as it actually worked. The RSG approach seems to be well supported. I was hoping to hear from someone that was actually using GRT, but ...

If it worked! What I find most peculiar is that I'm led to believe that a lot of the GRT code in NBU 6.5.3 is the same as GRT in BackupExec. This works well and right now in my organization. So how do I convince them to abandon this for NBU? You...

This means to do a restore, you have to restore the entire info store to the RSG first yes? I was wondering about the success rate of actually using the GRT feature that Symantec says is avaialble that allows in a single pass, the backup of the info...

I had already met all the prerequisites, and was able to backup and restore smaller sets of data. I only found out though a call to tech support that if the granular level job is only partially successful, that you will not be able to drill down to i...
