Networker 7.3 vs Microsoft Data Protection Manager (DPM)
Hello All,
We currently have Networker 7.3.x installed and configured as backup system for the entire data center (including File Servers, Exchange, SQL, Oracle, VMWare ESX), and lately our management had asked us to use Microsoft Data Protection Manager (DPM) to backup some of our servers .
We'd like to get advices from all of you expert on where we should go here? Questions are:
1. Did anyone have head-to-head comparison between Networker 7.3 vs Microsoft DPM?
2. IF we end-up with condition where we must implement Microsoft DPM, how are we going to combine it with the existing Networker 7.3.x?
Please kindly give your opinion and advices.
Thank You.

Still required more competitive information on Networker vs. DPM- For more info on dpm you could check http://technet.microsoft.com/nl-nl/dpm/default(en-us).aspx. There is very much info on the new dpm 2007.
I believe you should let the two products work together. However dpm 2007 also has writing capabilities to tape...

2) There is NMM module which does backup of DPM (addressing the DPM's issue of selfprotection). So you could use DPM for Windows boxes and then have that backed up by NW.
