- Protection for Microsoft Exchange
Revolutionizes data protection and recovery by significantly
reducing the number of backups and time required to protect
Exchange. Only Backup Exec 2012 leverages ground-breaking
patented Granular Recovery Technology (GRT) which helps IT
Administrators save valuable time and money by giving them
the ability to restore critical data such as individual
emails and mailboxes from a single pass backup in seconds
without the need for multiple Exchange backups. Fast,
flexible technology protects Exchange 2003, 2007, and 2010
(including 2010 SP1) Servers while the application is still
online.
- Protection for Microsoft SQL Server
Designed to be flexible and easy to use, protection for
Microsoft SQL Server provides fast, online protection of SQL
Server with flexible recovery options that enable IT
administrators to restore SQL Server databases down to the
individual file group from a single pass backup.
Administrators can also restore SQL server databases to
destinations other than where they originated, directing a
copy of the actual data streams being sent to media by a SQL
Server database to a local directory for later use. SQL
Server 2008 snapshots are integrated into the Backup Exec
catalog for a consolidated look at all data copies available
for recovery in seconds.
- Protection for Microsoft SharePoint
Quickly and easily recover individual objects, documents or
the entire SharePoint farm with robust data protection for
Microsoft SharePoint. Supports Microsoft SharePoint 2010,
both Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 and Microsoft
SharePoint Portal Server 2003, as well as Windows SharePoint
Services 2.0/3.0. Using a 32-bit or 64-bit Backup Exec 2012
media server, you can protect 32-bit or 64-bit MOSS-2007
servers deployed on a Single-Server or within a Multi-Server
Farm. Protection for SharePoint leverages ground-breaking
patented Granular Recovery Technology (GRT) which helps
users save time and money and reduces complexity by
providing the ability to restore individual documents, sites
and list items quickly and easily from a single-pass
database backup without having to recover the entire
database. Each file is recovered with attributes and
security fully intact. GRT also enables the IT Administrator
to restore the documents to the original document library in
the SharePoint farm or redirect the restore of documents to
the file system.
- Protection for Microsoft Active Directory
Dramatically reduce the time to recover from small disasters
of lost, deleted, corrupted or overwritten user accounts,
objects, and attributes, helping to improve employee
productivity, reduce the potential for greater issues, and
alleviate the aggravation associated with traditional Active
Directory protection and recovery. Only Backup Exec 2012
leverages ground-breaking patented Granular Recovery
Technology (GRT) which helps IT Administrators save time and
money by giving them the ability to restore critical data
such as individual user accounts and organizational units
from a single pass backup while Active Directory remains
online - no reboots!
- Protection for Enterprise Vault

Enterprise Vault archives, including support for Enterprise
Vault 8, 9, and 10. Through this agent, Backup Exec provides
full application protection for Enterprise Vault directory
databases, partitions or vault stores and indexes. All
backup and recovery jobs are managed though the Backup Exec
Administration console which allows users to easily select
some or all of the Enterprise Vault resources they wish to

Enterprise Vault components for recovery, including entire
sites, individual partitions, and indexes.
- Protection for Lotus Domino Server

Domino 7.x, 8 and 8.5 messaging and collaboration databases
within daily backup activities. Supports both 32-bit and

transaction logs. Users benefit from user-controlled
recycling of the transaction logs, reducing manual
intervention and speeding up recovery.
