If you have two copies of the same file on the server you are backing up, what does Backup Exec do about it?

Version 11d of Backup Exec introduced the Active Directory Recovery Agent, but do you actually need it? Contrary to some belief, you don't need the agent to backup Active Directory.

On versions of Backup Exec from 7.3 up to 10d, ExecView is an optional component which allows you to monitor (but not administer) one or more Backup Exec servers. ExecView was discontinued for Backup Exec 11d.

If you use the diagnostics for your tape drive, they will report that compression is turned off, and may even prompt you to change settings in your backup software. Don't worry, it's not as bad as it first seems.

My Backup tape is 400GB, but I can only get 300GB on a tape. Why?

Because the people who make tape drives are technical people, and the people who sell tape drives are marketing people.

There is no Backup Exec agent for MySQL, so you have to work around it...

Netbackup is more expensive than Backup Exec. What do you get for your money?
