MEDIA SERVER OPTIONS 
 
NEW! Central Admin Server Option  
Provides simplified, centralized management of 
multiple Backup Exec media servers. A robust and 
scalable solution, it enables centrally managed 
operations, load balancing, fault tolerance, 
monitoring and reporting for many Backup Exec 
media servers in a Windows data center, 
distributed throughout the network, or at remote 
offices. The Central Admin Server option makes 
Backup Exec simple to grow and simple to 
manage.  
 
NEW! Advanced Disk Backup Option  
Enables faster backups and restores through 
advanced disk-based backup and recovery, 
including synthetic and off-host backups to perform 
zero impact backups. Synthetic backups reduce 
backup windows and network bandwidth 
requirements, and do not impact the original client. 
Additionally, Synthetic backups allow for quick 
client restore from a single backup image to reduce 
the number of tapes and eliminate the need to 
restore from incremental backups. The Off-host 
backup feature enables better backup performance 
and frees the remote computer by processing the 
backup operation of the remote computer on a 
Backup Exec media server instead of on the 
remote computer, or host computer.  
 
ENHANCED! Desktop and Laptop Option 
Most businesses rely on users to manually copy 
business critical data to a server. When users do 
not comply, the majority of business-critical 
information residing on employee workstations, 
desktop and laptop does not get protected. The 
Desktop and Laptop Option delivers continuous 
data protection to desktops and laptops whether in
