Hi guys,
I've been using Acronis backup on our servers for the past few weeks as I'm trying to get a reliable system up and running for fault tolerance.
At the moment data is backed up via Symantec Backup exec but no system images / system states etc are backed up.
I've tried using acronis to create the images, however they are massive!
Our exchange server image is something like 50GB which atm is stored on s secondary data drive, however if this drive were to crap out we'd lose it, I tried the acronis secure zone but this seems like a massive amount of space to give to the secure zone :/
Does any1 have any suggestions for acronis or other backup software that I could use to quickly backup and restore a full server to its previous state in case of emergencies?
Coz this is what Im really after
