Now - If I use Backup Exec, will I still get the advantages of having snapshots to kep the image stable during the backup.. Or does Backup Exec just grab whats on the NFS drive at the time or read (no snapshot locking)

Many thanks

First of all, what is the build of DSSv6 that you are running now?

And for more details about B.Exec, please go to:

and look for : 2010.09 Backup of data residing on DSS V6 with Backup Exec.
