All servers are now virtualized. See more information here. We replicate all virtual machines to a secondary VM host using Nakivo Backup & Replication.

Nakivo has a web interface for configuring jobs. It can be accessed at https://192.168.0.36:4443 by using the typical administrator password.

Verify Backups by following these steps:

• Connect to EXCHANGE server using Remote Desktop Connection (Start > Programs > Accessories > Communications).
  • Select computer “EXCHANGE”.
  • Login as Administrator (using domain credentials).
• Run “Symantec Backup Exec” (Start > Programs > Symantec Backup Exec for Windows > Backup Exec 11d for Windows).
• Check that daily backups were performed (should have a checkmark beside the daily entry).

• Change hard drives for daily backups. This requires swapping HDD units BUD1 and BUD2 (Backup Unit Drive). Perform every Friday.

• Connect to server RAS (Start > Run As: \\NAS). Login as a regular user (using domain credentials) or Administrator.
• Open \\NAS\Backup share to verify that daily backups where performed for CRMServer (OnContact server), Fileserver (main file server), Infuserv (Infusion server).
• Use MS Backup to restore (or create new backups).
