The Backup Exec 12.5 Remote Media Agent for Linux Servers provides new storage flexibility for Linux servers running in a Backup Exec for Windows Server environment. Now IT administrators can directly attach a storage device to a remote Linux server providing added flexibility and reduced bandwidth requirements for backup jobs on remote Linux servers.
