I think I remember hearing R2 put back what original 2008 took away when it comes to backup.

I could easily pop up a replicate on a VM at another location that has the full blown BackupExec and a rotation already in place... How do you automate keeping the system state in sync? -----Original Message----- From: Ben Scott [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, November 19, 2009 5:41 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Will Ntbackup Suffice?

Why not just rsync the original files and skip NTBACKUP? Our setup has a server that does an NTBACKUP of "SystemState" to another server, but ROBOCOPY's everything else plain files. (The server is right next to it, so I didn't care about bandwidth. We backup that other server with tape every night.) One of the things I'm not looking forward to with the migration to 2008R2 is having to find a third-party backup solution, as Microsoft has so kindly decided our backup strategy is wrong. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
