If you
really had no budget you would use the backup software that came free with
your WindowsOS and does not perform Brick Level (or whatever the marketers are
calling it these days) backups.
I use
a P166 with 32MB RAM - my recovery server. Cost is less than the
ArcServeIT Exchange Agent.

From: STEVE BROOK [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 31, 2001 11:43 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: How many of you use Message Level Recovery ? Agreed, but there are
some sites where IT is still the poor relation. For instance where Business critical
software has been running for many years on AS400 or similar and the NT network
is fairly new and is only for Internet/e-mail/user office files . It can
take time for people to realise the importance of that network. This can mean little or no budget for
IT. Until last weekend, there were
zero spare pc's and two spare laptops on this
site. (I now have a spare server
for about three months until it is reutilised) I would love to have a recovery server
here and I will get one now that e-mail is becoming business critical. Case in
point, they lose a critical e-mail.
Attitudes gained over twenty years can not be changed overnight on a site
where fax machines are still in abundance and managers will write an e-mail then
print it out and mail it to people in the field!! Some sites, you have to work with what
you have got, and then work on changing attitudes. Brick Level Backup is there, it's free
(in their eyes). Another site, I
could walk in tomorrow and say I need a server and they will say sure, how much
do you want to spend, here is a blank cheque. Horses for
