disk to disk backup
LockedHi,
I run a Win 2K network with about 50 users for a CPA office in two locations conneced via a T1. I have to backup in my location…a PDC, Exchange and terminal server and from the other location a BDC (across a T1 (about 10MB throughput). I just switched to an AIT drive 100Gb/300GB but still have a backup window of 6 hours. Being a CPA office and being tax time I have users wanting access after 11pm when the backup starts. In AD I have everyone locked out between 11pm and 5:30 am M-F. I backup about 86GB all togther. MY superior suggested a make shift disk to disk…Install a 100GB drive in my term server and use XCOPY to copy all data to it from other servers and drives…then backup to the tape anytime during the day. Can this work? They don’t want to pay for the disk to disk equipment….
Thanks,
Rob
