[itdiscuss] Backup Software Revisited

[blloyd at buskercom.com]

I currently us Retrospect from EMC and it works well.  It is especially
good at restoring data.  

 

I'm looking at something called StoreGrid,
http://www.vembu.com/index.php, because it promises to backup data at
the bit level and with its replication server software it gives you the
ability to replicate the backup to an off-site location.  It also
appears to take a less-resource intensive backup of Exchange mailboxes.

Subject: [itdiscuss] Backup Software Revisited

 

I am again revisiting the question of backup software. I have been using
most recently Commvault Galaxy Express, and am finding it significantly
difficult to use. I am looking for something easy to use, reliable, will
be doing disk-to-disk daily and tape on weekends. I also want something
with decent notification abilities; I don't want to have a lot of false
alarms.

 

What do you use and how has it been for you?
