Anyone here have any experience with a Datto Backup Appliance?
I have just been told that they’ve never run a full restoration in the six years that it’s been in service, deployed for the backup of four mission critical virtual Windows Servers, four Windows Workstation and a (physical?) Linux PABX server.
The actual appliance is apparently a “Datto S3-2000 BCDR”
Edit: The anal retentive in me is going WTF in a tight loop. The industry professional with 40 years experience in the field is going, different day, same old…
I realised that I didn’t actually ask the pertinent question, the hamster wheel was running full tilt, but is this normal, or is this WTF, or somewhere in-between?
You’re welcome, and good luck to you!
Depending on the power of your device (which I cba to look up), you may be able to spin it up locally on the device for a dr test. I was lucky enough to have a company that forced the versions that could run a few VMs side by side, so that made it possible to do that sort of thing easily, and remotely!
