Announcing the SP1 Release for System Center Data Protection Manager 2007
That's great, it also added the support to backup Hyper-V
Unfortunatily, I'm designing and deploying DPM almost everywhere here, and the customer's are really frustrated by the single mailbox restore process..I always hear something like:
So if I have that 500 GB MB DB and need to restore my boss mailbox, do I have to tell him please wait till tomorrow so I can allocate space for the RSG and the (over network) restoration process can be done? and after all they advise to use mailretriever addition to the DPM for that! (recommending a third party to be installed on the DPM, then why got DPM at the first place?)
I won't comment on the system state backup mechanism for win2k8 process that allocates for you 10 GB for windowsimagebackup folder!! and the calculation process, when I calculated for a customer the required disk pool by, it got me something like.. say 550 GB, and by the calculator (last one) it got me 530, and when I left configured DPM I found it to ask me for about 620 GB (all entries was accurate)..
So after all, I hope we will have a solid backup solution for Exchange, i'm not saying other than DPM, but maybe DPM v5 or something
