Using BEWS and BESR together (redux)
Updated: 21 May 2010 | 1 comment
My apologies for the multiple, incomplete posts. I was trying to edit the message
and add italics, when the screen cleared, et voila: multiple imcomplete messages.
I have an SBS 2003 server with C: holding system and programs, D: holding all data including Exchange and SQL databases. Previously we did a nightly backup with BEWS of the entire server.
Now we've added BESR. Some questions on using them:
1. In BESR, should one backup D: as well as C:?
2. To achieve a full system backup, should one use BESR to backup an image of C:, and in BEWS turn off the C: backup and use it only for the data on D:?
3. Can BEWS backup the BESR image to tape once it is complete?
Thanks.

BEWS can indeed backup a BESR *.V2i file to tape, though you are not going to have as much compression on such files and it is best to use the AOFO option.
