The device monitor should also contain iosatat data like write and read per second, average number of transaction and average service time. The job monitor shows speed per stream, but it is not very easy to calculate that number per drive in MPX environment. I would like to see the current drive speed and every stream speed to that drive on the same screen.

See forum link for detail (https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/file-system-archiving-roll-back-methods-and-fsautility) Could FSAUtility be altered to allow rollback without overwrite ? Chris

When DA was a web-based tool, I could copy the errors from a specific search out to Excel and submit to my legal team as usually required. The DA client does not allow this. It also doesn't allow copy the list of custodians in a completed search out to Excel as well. This should be put back in.

Hi, When I take a Manual Backup of a certain policy (to test the policy or a tapedrive or so), this Manual Backup intervenes with the normal schedule. So for instance when I test a backup during they day, it will not run again during its normal schedule at night. I would like to have an ability to test backups that do NOT influence any schedule please :)

Starting with BackupExec v12.5, the server will attempt to poll the internet to get a Symantec ThreatCon status.  If there is no internet access, or there's a timeout, every day an alert will result saying "The Symantec ThreatCon Level is not up-to-date". Many of us have servers that do not and will not have internet access, and we don't want or care about ThreatCon.  Every single day we get these nagging messages.  Please make it stop!  In general, no ...

In Backup Exec 12.5 ThreatCon functionality is built in. Backup Exec is trying to download a threatcon.zip file every 5 minutes, needed or not, Internet connected or not. Also you get a job warning every 24 hours mentioning the ThreatCon level is not up to date.   In a corporate environment this will flood firewall/proxy logfiles. The only workaround provided so far is to add an entry in the hosts file to point securityresponse.symantec.com to localhost.   If the backup server is ...

It would be nice to have a list of known and confirmed bugs that Symantec support knows with a plan to fix it and maybe voting system (like in ideas) that we may vote what should be fixed first. With a bug there should be also ETA for a fix (in what release it will be fixed). Sometimes there is a known problem and even whitepapers available but only for internal use and it would be handy to be able to seek and reference something when calling support (obviously I'm not expecting that some ...

After using this for a few months now, I would like to see a button on the agent status page to re-poll all the data collectors at one time. This would make it really easy to poll all the data collectors at one time (after fixing problems or what ever reason you need) than going through each data collector and clicking the poll button. Thanks

This idea is for a tool to be created that can be run against a NetBackup deployment (master/media/clients) to check for Symantec best practices and make recommendations where necessary (items like number buffers/size buffers/media and master server resource utilization/clients or servers with old software versions). The tool could even be integrated into a product like NOM to run on a regular schedule and so that it could alert when items become out of compliance/best practice.

Hi all, In the current versions of Netbackup one must install NFS services on both Windows clients & media servers in order to be able to browse the granular restore files (Active Directory, Exchange, SharePoint). Why is NFS needed for a granular restore? Please fix Netbackup so that restores can be done without starting all kinds of extra services... Also there is some rule that the GRT image should reside on disk storage only, before a granular restore can be done. Why? Granular ...

To see at a glance live basic stats e.g. Total Jobs, Queued, Drives, Throughput. Maybe update every 5,10,30 seconds?

It would be nice to be able to click on a failed backup job from the NetBackup Administration Console and be able to create a Support Case that sends the log files, configuration information and contact information needed to troubleshoot the problem.

Hi, How about an option in the "Backup, Archive & Restore" GUI to identify the size of the files & directories that you've selected? This could potentially be added to the existing feature that identifies the tapes that will need to be loaded. In the last week, I've had to perform multiple NDMP restores of a user's home directory, due to failures along the way. The job couldn't use DAR and so I had to spend 25h each time, parsing through 20 ...

Hi, I was looking at http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/285115.htm and it talked about auditing in detail certain activities.  The deletion was one of them.  It turns out that the auditing feature does not log information for an expiry deletion , nor any detailed infomation about a deletion, (eg. subject, vault, etc.) We have had enterprise vault for a few years in our environment and no deletions had ever been performed.  We are at a stage where we would like to ...

Please add support for Windows 7 as client OS for Enterprise Vault 8.0. We have several users who would like to use Windows 7 as client OS. But EV seems to have some issue with Vault Cache Sync.

I think it would be great to scan for example PDF files with only images. We have multiple HP digital scanners those send out pdf files with a scan of the document. when this is archived yo uwill not be able to find the complete document anymore. with OCR the file is ofcourse more index-able.
