Just a suggestion to the NBU product management team to do the following to improve NBU GRT backup/restores

1. Remove the need to have to add and configure the Client/Server for NFS.It adds complexity and introduces another vulnerability that should not have to be there on Windows "hardened" systems.

2. Re-write the NBU agent that is custom for NBU. Currently, whereever there is a GRT error during backup or restore, it throws out an error for "Backup Exec"

3. Add support for "cumulative incremental" and "differential incremental" backups. right now only Full backups are supported and from my understanding BE does have the funcationality to support cumulative and incremental backups.

4. Search capability built-in to the GRT backup for SharePoint objects, AD Objects, and email items (I believe this is on the roadmap for 7.6 but requires a separate index server.
