Hello,
Care to share your success, what have you done differently, tape
management, media rotation, scheduling, procedures, implementation,
hardware to get where you are now.
There is growing dissatisfaction among other networker admins in regards
to Networkers high hands on approach, scripting, deficiencies in media
management, AD restore capabilities compared to new backup software, bare
metal restores,cloning,staging,device management, reporting etc.
Perhaps the forum can consider having resident expert in each major area
i,e cloning, san & publishing relevant solution that list members can draw
upon at will, i.e NDMP backups, Cloning, sricipting.
This are just the thoughts, i mean i am sure plenty of admins may feel
Networker is up to the task,but the questions still remains is it ?

[Networker] SLAs and backup cost estimates
The satisfaction here at Temple with our NetWorker backups is very
high, to the point where I receive more and more requests to back up
servers. This has prompted management to set up an SLA for each
client's backups, plus we need a better model of estimating the cost
of backing up individual clients.
I am wondering what other sites do for their SLAs and how you estimate
backups and charge for them. I figure the two most important factors
to consider are the recovery time objective and the amount of data
involved.
Any comments or information will be appreciated.
