Hi, I am really interested in what you find out from your EV.
Do you have any good comment on how to handle backups together with archiving? Should backup solution be archive aware and dont backup the archived files or there "links"? What about applying a de-dup backup solution instead? Perhaps one just pushes the problem further into the future with a de-dup solution.. But it`s hourse job for us to ask the business who they want to handle there information.. (some classification need to be done before applying archiving policies).

Do you see any other positive effects by using a backup solution and archive solution from the same vendor? (except for better prices and greater attention) We are evaluating archive solutions for the moment, right now we are testing SAM-FS from SUN. Anyone have experience with SAM-FS?

The product is Enterprise Vault. http://www.symantec.com/enterprise/products/agents_options_details.jsp?pcid= 1018&pvid=322_1&aoid=406 It ain't cheap and isn't a hack. It's a serious archiving solution for serious archiving problems. Don't forget that you actually have 2 problems, not 1. You don't just want to be able to archive the files. You probably want to be able to get them back :-) .../Ed -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu This email (including any attachments) may contain confidential and/or privileged information or information otherwise protected from disclosure.
