Fiona,

Don't go for the Veritas IDR solution. I have just installed it and we are
using it because it given to us by Veritas with netbackup. All it does is an
automated Windows NT/2000 MS install and at the end runs a GUI program to do
a restore. A total waste of time to install a OS (about a hour or so) just
to have it overwritten with the restore. There new replaement software they
have just bought off another compkany called 'bare metal restore' seems to
be a MUCH MUCH better product.

Cheers

Paul

Fioon, call you Veritas representative and ask for an evaluation copy of the
IDR (strange that there isnt an eval version, they have evals of all the
other options).  I've used both, and the Veritas solution is superior in
every way to Arcserve (at least once CA got hold of it).
