[NTSysADM] Anyone using BackupAssistv7?

2014-06-10 Thread Pierre-Marie Camilleri
Hi everyone Is anyone using BackupAssistv7 to back up their Hyper-V hosts and VMs? I am also looking at Altaro Backup but BackupAssist has a Tape Backup option which Altaro does not have. Furthermore BA is less expensive than Altaro and Veeam. Would welcome any feedback on this product. TIA

To the list, I've been noodling an idea for a while and I was curious what your thoughts might be on this. Feel free to shoot holes, I'm still working it out. At one of the companies I'm involved with, Runaware, we have massive excess datacenter capacity, with large Citrix farms hosting

Of course not. They’re all housed one of those DC in a box thingies. You know, take a shipping container and turn it into a self-contained data center. It was already on the back of a truck for DR purposes and they just drove across town. Connectivity was only via wireless, so everything

I may be doing a server shuffle myself, haven't decided if it'll be worth it. The long and short is client with 2 sites, and the remote site has a more powerful/capable/newer Hyper-V server than the main site, so I'm thinking of physically swapping the machines and the VM's as well. They're all

You'd be reliant on online capability to use the browser though, surely? There is stuff out there like App-V and ThinApp that can cache packaged apps on the client (or deliver through Citrix) already, similar to the old Citrix offline streaming. Rod has mentioned Spoon also, not sure that has any

Similar, but arguably less complicated. Just a link, and executes a browser in a remote session, you do what you do, and then close the session and the session expires. I'm not wedded to the idea. But I'm trying to figure out a way to use all this excess datacenter capacity. Alex Eckelberry

Anything that is considered executable by Windows. Certainly, the obvious things: EXE, DLL. MSP, MSI, MSU. But also the non-obvious things: XLS, XLSX, DOC, DOCX. The list of things not affected might be far shorter: TXT, PS1, LOG. Actually, that list is pretty long too…anyway… From:
