Well organized and worth the reading January 23, 2009
Rafael Morales Dorado (Madrid, Spain)
Vertical applications, such this backup software, often comes with bare documents or none at all. So it is frustrating to go screen after screen trying to understand how it works.
"Implementing Backup and Recovery" is not a techonology book, not a general book on backups and security procedures, but a full manual to Veritas software. However, the way the book is developed it will help you not only to put Veritas on service, but to understand certain secururity issues and create your backup policies.
An easy to read and well written book that will demand an aditional read of newer PDFs to apply to more updated versions of the software, but still a good reading.
 not that useful. not good at all for netbackup. December 22, 2004

not that useful in real life. not good at all for netbackup.
however, it is good for "general knowledge" about backup.
really good for calculating capacity etc.
 Amazing general resource despite vendor-centric approach March 17, 2004

I don't normally find value in general topic books that use a specific product to illustrate concepts; however, this book is an exception. The authors thoroughly cover all of the issues associated with back-up and recovery, including those related to business continuity, disaster recovery, and the affect that back-up and recovery has on service and availability.Given the pervasiveness of both UNIX (including Linux), and Windows, I like the fact that both operating systems are addressed in the book. I am firmly in the UNIX camp, but it's nearly impossible to find a Linux or UNIX shop that doesn't have at least some critical applications running on Windows servers. Of course, if you use Netbackup this book is going to be all the more valuable; however, if you don't, do not let the fact that the authors base the concepts and examples on this product dissuade you from buying this book. It is one of the best books on back-up and recovery issues and challenges, regardless of vendor solution used.
