Re: [Veritas-bu] Windows 2008 Client

What I've heard is that the 6.5.1 client won't properly
backup the system registry and cannot restore the system into a bootable state
because it doesn't understand the lack of a boot.ini. From what little
testing I did here backups work but not restores. YMMV but I wouldn't put
anything important out there unless you are sure you
can restore.
Other suggestions: Use snapshot technologies to pickup the
data (VCB, SAN etc..) or use Microsoft's Data Protection Manager to backup the
files to a fileshare and pick them up from there as .bkf files. Its dirty
but it works.

I’m
at 6.0 and was really hoping to upgrade to 6.5.1 next week and not very anxious
to go to 6.5.2 just yet from what I’m reading. The server team decided to
start rolling out 2008 Server servers without checking for compatibility so now
I have clients I can’t backup. Is there any other way besides upgrading to
.2 to resolve this?
Thanks,
Randy
