I am using Symantec Backup Exec 2010 R2 for regular backups & recovery for about a years’ time.
My production server configuration as follows,
Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise 64 bit
Server Hardware: Dell Power Edge R710 Intel Xeon E5630
Now I want to full backup restore to a different server & server configure as follows,
Windows Server 2008 Standard 64bit
Server Hardware: DELL PowerEdge C1100 Intel L5630 X2 Quad Core
I download & install Symantec Backup Exec 2010 R3 - trial version (I don’t have the original disks for existing backup software) on my target server Dell C1100.
I tried to restore the above backup into target server and I am getting following error,
“Unable to attach to \\SERVER2\c$.
V-79-57344-33898 – The restore could not be restored ……..Make Sure that the correct version of the Remote Agent is installed and running on the target computer.”
Do I need to install same version “Symantec Backup Exec 2010 R2” software on the target server?
Do I need to activate the Symantec Backup Exec 2010 R3 - trial version with existing 2010 R2 licences ? if so anything happen to my live production server?
Thanks
