I have read from several professional sources that typically, hardware compression will yield better results versus software compression. I'm talking DLT IV using Arcserve 9 now. Well, i had been having issues with hardware compression whereby 80GB tapes would max out just below 60GB. I realize...
I have a backup job that ends/cancels itself at about 62GB of data. I'm using 80GB compressed DLT for media. Also, that last session that gets cut off by the job is only 10GB, so the total size of the job is 72GB, still plenty of room left on the media.
I have other jobs that run over 70gb with...
I tried using Source Priority with Arcserve 2000 and was never able to get it to ACTUALLY work. Now I have BAB v9 installed and I would like to try to utilize Source Priority for all jobs. What do I need to do?
Do I need to enable anthing on the Client Agent side? My assumption was that since...
I have been using Arcserve 9 for a little over a year. The upgrade from Arcserve 2000 to BAB v9 was a great improvement, especially with the Raima database and overall backup speeds.
I don't like to messing with something that is not broken. So I'm looking for feedback on v11, since I qualify...
Our laptop users had been given Admin rights locally due to some legacy apps that did not behave for "regular" users. Presently, we no longer run these apps, but we'd like to allow user to install AV updates when they are on the road. However, we'd rather they not have local admin rights.
All...

Hi,
We manage a 35 user network, but currently do not use any remote control on desktops. We are a Win2K SP4 environment all around. Due to interdepartmental changes, we will soon be managing 65 desktops. We planned on upgrading to XP next year, so we do not have the benefit of utilizing Remote...
We utilize two AV scanners on our network. Mcafee VS is on the desktops and servers, and they perform normal nightly scans on local disks. Sophos is running on one network server, and it scans itself AND specific, common, network shares (home directories, file stores, user profiles, etc) every...
It's that time again for us when we decide on what new laptops to buy our Marketing guys. We usually stick with IBM because for the most part they seem to be the best built laptops fou our needs. Well designed, very good power, few headaches, built to last.
The downside is they can average out...
We use BAB v9 on Windows 2000 SP4. I have tried several times to prioritize the order of a backup job, but seem to be having dificulty. I think I am misunderstanding something.
When "you" submit a backup job in Arcserve, what exactly is the purpose of the "Source Priority"...
If I am backing up THE backup server (server with Arcserve), does it need a Client Agent? Without the Client Agent, will performance be the same? My understanding is the Client Agent is used to "push" data over (the network) to Arcserve, right? But if the data resides on the local box...
I purchased a DVD-RW drive to add to our backup options, but I am unable to configure it with BAB v9. The drive is attached to the server via USB (it's a Plextor drive) and the OS (WIN2K SP4) can "see" the drive, but Arcserve Device Manager does not. This strikes me as very odd, and I...
I installed Brightstor Arcserve Backup version 9 on my Windows 2000 server. I did a FRESH install versus an upgrade of Arcserve 2000. I have been able to inport my old jobs into BAB v9. However, I can't get into the ALERT program, when I click on it within the GUI, I get a box stating it is not...
I'm trying to convince my supervisor to move to XP with the purchase of 80 new PCs for our office. These will be HP Compaq 2.x GHZ P4's with 512MB ram, hyper threading, etc, top of the line. He likes the comfort and stability of Windows 2000 SP4, but I say XP is no longer "new", and...
We will be retiring a W2K DC sometime soon and I'd like to get some feedback on how to replace this server. Basically the current DC is about 4 years old, and is on a server that's about 6 or 7 years old.
It will be replaced with a new HP Compaq DL380 server. It's only role is as a DC and a...
I have been trying to perform a customized deployment of VSE7.1 via EPO, with minimal success. First off, I extracted the install (msi file) files from the F.E.A.D. Optimizer that 7.1 uses. However, when I try a custom install, I'm not sure how to set it up within the "DEPLOY - Edit Command...
My AutoUpdate Pull from Mcafee (HTTP and FTP) was working great for awhile, but now does not. For whatever reason the task logs show "ran with errors" for every scheduled pull. I have stopped/restarted the framework service, flushed DNs and IE cache, deleted the last DAT/engine files...
I keep seeing this message in my epo Server Task Logs:
"repository pull: ran with errors". When this happens, I know a DAT/engine download did not complete. I discovered the only way to remedy this in the short term is to :
- delete (clear) the latest updates from the repository
-...
