About Symantec Backup Exec Desktop Agent?

The Backup Exec software allows for the installation of one or more media servers, which are responsible for transferring data from various locations to a storage medium, such as disk or tape. This can include data from the local system or from a remote system using an "agent." Additional functionality for the core Backup Exec product can be unlocked through the addition of agent licenses. These agents include the ability to back up filesystem snapshots, synthetic backups, and databases such as Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft SQL Server, and Oracle databases. The management of multiple media servers is possible through the Central Admin Server Option. Moreover, the latest versions of the software also support Unix, Linux, Macintosh, and NDMP clients.
