Backuping of SME Snapshots with BackupExec

menzies — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 07:13:21 GMT

Hi All.

I have had a good look around and can't find anything useful on how to go about backing up SME ~recent Snapshots with BackupExec. If anyone has any experience or documentation please let me know.

Many thanks

Craig

Hi Craig,

I know that this is definitely doable (in Backup Exec GUI you just browse via NDMP servers to the snapshot in question), but not quite sure whether it can be neatly automated (unless using a very clever script).

You can find some resources on Symantec pages, albeit they aren't very detailed, indeed:

Hi did you ever come up with a solution for this?

I have the same scenario but I'm trying to schedule the backup of weekly verified snapshots with unique naming convention
