Hi angrydok,

Have you tried to access EMC online support site(https://support.emc.com/downloads/) for product downloading? You can try to search the product which you want to download.

If unfortunately you also cannot download from here, I have to suggest you to contact sales again.

Yup,

Hello,

if you have access to the service partner web on Powerlink you can download the Avamar Procedure Generator.

There you have all the download links for the AVE.

If you don´t have access I can send you the link to a email address.

Waiting for the access now. Thank you at least this is close

Testing. My company would not be happy to buy something without testing it.

A VDP appliance although based on a Avamar AVE I don’t believe would be considered a valid comparison to a full featured Avamar AVE or Avamar system.

The VDP UI is very different to what the normal Avamar UI provides and is also very limited in terms of its capabilities versus that of a full featured Avamar system.

If you are sincere in your interest in Avamar and require testing it in your environment prior to purchase perhaps your local EMC account team would agree to a Avamar POC.

You need to differentiate between AVE and VDP.

AVE is a full featured virtual Avamar system deployed on ESX but is not free so would require you involve your EMC account team to test it in your environment.

VDP is from VMware and is a free appliance that is based on an AVE but with the significant restrictions I mentioned in my previous post.

I fully understand that. Due the company policy I cant put a new serverbox in our building - so software is the only choice. And when I heard about the AVE - it sounds like the solution to our comprehensive policies... so why would not I go and test it

Let me know if you still haven't received the download link. I am an EMC partner and can assist you with getting started with AVE.

I am interested in Avamar AVE not VDP. I know what VDP is, thank you - and I am not sure why VDP comes out when I am interested in trial for Avamar AVE, which was in my original post.

Rob, Thank you! I will gladly take any help from here.

Going circles the second week already:

2. 2. Registered at EMC portal, tried to request a file in the download section- no answer.
3. 3. Posted this thread in the EMC forum - YeY answers finally

Product which you are looking for:

An email id of any existing member:
