You might want to consider something like Data Domain or a product like
Riverbed.

I like the idea of Riverbed (a WAN acceleration device), where you could
bring your file servers back to the local site, backing them up there, and
then your remote users would access the file server via the WAN, with
Riverbed devices on each end.  The idea is that this device makes the file
server appear local to the remote users.

 

Any way you cut it remote site backups are a pain and the fewer autonomous
NBU environments you have the better off you will be.

All,

I just wanted to get an idea of what everyone is doing to back up any remote
sites they may have. I am running NBU 5.1 MP4 on W2K3 servers. I have a few
sites with a single DC that is acting as file server, and print server. As
of right now, these single servers are not getting backed up. Can NBU be
used for this or should we look into something else? Any insight would be
appreciated. 

 

Thanks,

Jason
