Hi,
We're considering Backup Exec as a backup solution and trying to find out if it fits our needs. We have 3x remote sites. Each site has a Windows server (2008 or 2012) and a handful of Windows and Mac clients. I've been flicking through the admin guide but thought it would be quicker to ask some questions here:
1) We want each machine to be able to back up to any server - the one on its local network and either/both of the 2x remote ones - is this possible?
2) We want to be able to select different files for backup on a machine depending on its backup destinations - for example if a machine is backing up to a local and remote server we may exclude some larger files from the remote backup. Is this possible?
3) Can we administer and configure multiple backup servers across different locations from one server?
4) Can we set up email alerts for failed backups, failed storage and so on?
I hope these are simple questions for someone already using Backup Exec.
Thanks in advance.
Rob
