Can Backup Exec Server be installed in a workgroup and backup agents over hardware firewalls
Hi Can Backup Exec be installed on a non-domain server? I have done it in the past, but wanted to know if it is possible with the latest versions and for it to still be able to back up other remote agents also in workgroups. Can it also back up agents over a third party firewall, and if so, can the number of ports required to be open, be minimised to a very limited number? Thanks Chris
Another firewall question. Basic setup one sever, 10 clients
I have looked at the firewall rules in https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.100017208 My setup is just a single backup exec server with locally attached disks for backup to disk (no cloud, not tape no remote storage). No other servers are used (apart from the agents). No alerts, no deduplication (I think). Clients are windows servers. Here we go... The backup server needs to initiate communicate to the agents on port 10000 to the clients The backup server then needs to inititiate communicate with agents on a dynamic address range (1024 to 65535 --can be customised) The server also initiates with the agents on port 6101 for "browsing"(??). Do I need this? Do I need to open up 3527/6106 (beserver), if so is it.. The agents need to initiate communication with the backup server on ports 3527 and 6106 OR Thebackup server needs to initiate communication with the agents on ports 3527 and 6106 Same question with Backup Exec Job Engine(beengine) on port 5633 I am going to say that "backup exec managment" (port 5014) does not need to be open in a simple setup. With the above in place ..... I do not need to touch any other FWs.

Dear All, We recently encountered an issue whereby our communication seems staggered and cripple by multiple (as in thousands) of TCP port connection originating from our Backup Exec CASO to a single media server and the connections coming in and outgoing from our core firewall are occupied and crippled by these connection. It seems strange that there are thousands of port 3527 connection going out/in from the CASO to a single media server. Could this be a bug? Anybody can enlightened us? Many many thanks.
Problems when backing up Hyper-V TMG servers
Hi Backup Exec 2010 R3 I have an Hyper-V setup, with multiple server joined the domain. I have 2 servers which are not joined the domain, both serveres are TMG 2010 servers (One is Firewall, the other is Configuration server). I backup alle Hyper-V serveres in one job/selection list, and backs up to a deduplication folder. This Job "Completed with exceptions", the exeptions is that it can't take a GRT of the TMG servers. The traffic from the TMG to the backup server is allowed. Anyone who knows what I can do about this? Regards Lars Mortensen
