I think the bigger question is what are you trying to replicate and how do you plan to restore?
Exchange/SQL/AD Restore: Turn on in the WAN location? Bring systems/data back ??? So some general products that have used: XOsoft WANsync , Symantec Netbackup, DRBD (SAN), Datacore (SAN w/ lower bandwidth) For a bunch of documents I like the DFS option if you have good static connectivity, but you don't have a lot of controls in place, Windows determines how/what/when it syncs. Still it's a set it and forget it option. From: Roger Wright [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, February 24, 2009 2:22 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Backups Over WAN For those of you who are backing up over the WAN: Wwhat types of hardware and software are required for this to work efficiently? Does it only work well with deduplication? Would I have to rethink my nightly/weekly/monthly backup strategies? I'm currently working with BE 12 soon to be 12.5 and would like to stick with that if possible. And we have about 5 TB total data stored right now.
