2008-05-29 Thread UlrichJU
We are testing an exagrid currently and we originally had the backup jobs pointing to a storage unit with \\exagridservername\sharename as the path. Then we decided to VLAN it to try and get better performance. So the path in the storage unit changed to \\ip address\sharename. The

2008-04-29 Thread UlrichJU
I have installed and running Netbackup for VMWare and VCB. It all works great. The question I have now is that they are planning on putting one of the servers on our BRP list on a VM. So I will now have to restore this at our offsite location during disaster recovery. What will I need
