The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
You do not need the AD Agent for BEWS.
Plus, you should be restoring your AD only in extremely catastrophic
circumstances. You _should_ be running to AD servers as it's such a
critical service, preferably with one offsite.
IMHO, Windows Server Backup is not suitable for production
environments.
We've been using NTBackup (WSB before W2K8) for a decade to do nightly
backups on dozens of servers incl. restores from the backups. Is it as
streamlined as BEWS? No. Does it work, yes.
If you're using SQL Server you'll want to do proper log file backups in
short intervals (depending on your recovery model) - this can't be
achieved using WSB.
Well... perhaps WSB itself can't do the logfile backups. But if you have
SQLServer do the backups to disk (we do logfiles every 15 minutes) then
you can let WSB backup the .bak files from the file system.
