Symantec releases Linux version of Backup Exec System Recovery (SearchDataBackup.com)

SearchDataBackup.com reports that Symantec has released a Linux version of its BESR utility. "Symantec Corp. released a new version of its bare-metal restore software that adds support for Linux servers and tightens integration for centralized management of server backups. Backup Exec System Recovery (BESR) 2010 will ship this week, but new support for backing up and restoring entire server images including operating system or individual files from Red Hat or SUSE Linux servers won't be generally available until December. Once that happens, it will be the first non-Windows operating system support to be available for BESR, said senior product marketing manager Susie Spencer."
