Centralised Management without VSR-MS
As annouced today VSR 21.3 has discontinued support for VSR-MS.:smileysurprised: Who does Veritas think should one centrally manage 150+ clients in 100+ different locations? :smileysad: SR Monitor might help with monitoring, but definitly not with policies and settings! And how to migrate all does centrally managed jobs to locally managed jobs?!:smileyfrustrated:
Veritas System Recovery Management Solution and Win Srv 2016
Hello everybody, in my compoany we're using VSR since many years and we implemented Management Solution in order to control clients status and to remptely manage backup jobs. We moved from an environment based on Windows Server 2008 R2 and VSR 16 to new servers based on Windows Server 2016 and we realized even latest version of VSR Management cannot run on servers newer than 2012. I was woundering if Veritas is still interested in supproting and developing this product. How can it be that Management Solution customers are still depending on old (and complicated, and really heavy) Symantec Altiris Platform that, I believe, nobosy will never update tp be compatible with newer OS? Does anyone know if there is some plan to implement a different solution to remotely control clients. In our network we're dealing with 28 clients and I cannot imagine to install VSR 18 on all clients and to go on each of them to modify a job or to check status of the backup. Now that Windows Server 2019 will be on the market is it serious to be just compatible with 2012?
