Q:
Dell/EqualLogic Transportable Snapshots and Backup Exec 12.x
Backup server software, Backup, Backup Exec 12, EqualLogic, EqualLogic Transportable Snapshots, EqualLogic Auto Snapshot Manager
Has anyone put together a step-by-step on how to get the transportable snapshots created by Dell/EqualLogic Auto Snapshot manager to be used by Symantec Backup Exec 12 or 12.5 for backing up their data or if you have any links to how this can be facilitated. I have read all the Dell/EqualLogic white papers as well as anything I could find from Symantec.

THere is a missing link on how Backup Exec actualy mounts the snapshots remotely and then backs them up.

When you set up the backup job there is an option in the job properties to use the EqualLogic hardware provider to initiate the snaps and back them up using Backup Exec. We have a demo available from Symantec that demonstrates this: http://dell.altiris.com/portals/0/off-host backups with symantec backup exec and dell equallogic_final.zip We can also offer you the opportunity to connect with Dell EqualLogic & Symantec to discuss this feature.

I am facing exactly the same problem as Jrrbrown.
Unfortunatelly the link is not correct anymore and I also cannot find the equallogic_final.zip. Is it still availible somewhere? Can you post a new link.

Thank you.
