Andrew Warby of CRA International discusses virtual machine backup

DATE: 10 Mar 2009


Andrew Warby, senior network administrator at CRA International's Boston office, discusses a recent server consolidation project that required significant changes to how they perform backups.

CRA's Boston office backs up between 20 and 30 TB of data to tape weekly using Symantec Corp.'s Backup Exec 12. The consolidation project involved converting a number of physical machines to virtual machines and the company had specific backup requirements.

Warby explained that they wanted to be able to restore VMDK files as well perform file-level restores and they chose Vizioncore's vRanger to facilitate this. Check out the video to learn more.
