Not yet - I'm still looking at it in a test environment.

How would you backup open windows files on Windows 2000 without it? It's
quite likely that people leave Outlook open on their desktop at the end
of the day and in the past this has caused open file issues (as well as
any documents they might be working on).

Cons: Backups can fail with status 156
Pros: Well I dont use it - and even with AD, its not even used. and yet
it still gets backed up!
=20
VSP/VSS within Netbackup will need disk space. Have you tried it yet?

        Hi,
        =20
        I'm a bit of a newbie to Netbackup (but learning shed-loads
rather rapidly) and have a question about VSP for open file backups.
I've had some people who use this and others who don't although I've not
had any reasons for either case.
        I'm wondering if it's generally a good idea on things like
Windows file servers (where especially pst files are often open), DHCP
and DDNS servers (non Active Directory DDNS). On Windows 2003, it seems
VSS is better for open file backups (although this may be wrong).
        What are the cons with using VSP?
=09

        =20
        Cheers,
