[TriLUG] Tabe Backup Software

Let me ask this...are your UNIX and Linux clients SUPPORTED?  I'm not
trying to get into a pissing contest over backup software, but one of
the guys I work with who recently left Veritas said that the UNIX and
Linux clients for Backup Exec are not supported...but they are available
at no charge.

Bzzzzz, wrong.

 Backup Exec doesn't support Linux as the server, but does support Linux

clients. So if you can live with your backup server being on Windows, 
you can use it.

Disclaimer: I work for VERITAS, and regularly use their products.  I was

a VERITAS customer before I worked for them, and was overall  impressed 
by their product line even before drinking the company supplied
beverages.


Peace.
