If you've got the Veritas netbackup SQL Server agent, you can configure
netback to capture all relevant databases. If not, you can use the SQL
Server backup database task wizard to backup your databases, then use
netbackup to backup these files.

How do I backup databases, onto Veritas Backup? In the Enterprise Edition if
I expand the database server I could select all task, backup database and
select the destination. Which is the proper way to backup these databases.
You could get a Veritas agent that will be able to back up the database real
time. The problem with using the plain vanilla Backup EXEC is that it can't
back up a file that is in use. Alternatively, you can use a scheduled task
within Enterprise Manager to back up the database before you backup to tape.
We have ours set up this way and it works well...
