Good morning,
I'm having a little trouble finding current information on whether Backup Exec (updated to the newest version/SP) will or will not support Windows 8. It is telling me the agent will not install on a Windows 8 computer; however, it appears to install the agent on Server 2012. The Symantec articles I found were from last summer indicating Windows 8 was not supported. I've also discovered that you have to use Windows 2008 or earlier to install BE server - which is a bummer since my data center is all 2012. I had to get a 2008 license and create a seperate VM to try out BE.
I need a backup solution for our servers and laptops - I would prefer it to be an all in one solution. Am I wrong or is Symantec STILL not supporting operating systems that have been out for 2 YEARS?
Thanks,
Randy
