2000, and using this software to manage local backups.
NOTE: Before installing the backup software, check http://support.dell.com for the latest driver
updates for your software. You may need to install these updates after completing the procedures
below.
NOTE: When backing up a data volume, Dell recommends that you deselect the ActiveArchive
subdirectory that is contained within each volume. If you do not deselect this subdirectory, your
backup software will back up all the snapshots on your system. This action creates multiple
copies of your data, which causes you to use more tapes than necessary.
