Feature Request - Multiple B&R Servers in Standalone console

Post by mwpreston » 2 people like this post

First off Congrats on the v9 release - a lot of great features in there!

One of my favs - the standalone console! Love not having to rdp all the time. That said you know how I'm never satisfied? Wouldn't it be great to be able to connect to multiple B&R servers from the same console? Similar to how SQL Server Management Studio allows you to connect to many database servers at once? Similar to my "handy" work below :)

What do you think? Valid?

Congrats again! Mike

Thanks Mike! Certainly valid, however will likely take yet another re-write of the entire client to achieve ;)

I'm not sure I'd even like an integrated view like that. On the other hand, having a tabbed window to switch completely between backup servers instead of using multiple windows might be nice. Preferably able to dock/undock like a browser. Not sure whether I'd prefer the tabs on the top or side though...

A bit off-topic, but this remembers me of something funny I read the other day in a whitepaper of Rubrik & Pure Storage "Integration".
There were some bullet points, one was the problem of complex management.
The solution offered according to the white paper is the following:
"Both solutions (Pure & Rubrik) can be managed through different tabs within the same browser."

Sounds like magic to me :)

LOL.
Like saying we integrate since a long time with vCenter Client since both can be installed and executed on the same windows machine ;)

I know that it doesn't address your entire use case, but if we are talking about simple backup job management and stats review, then you can do that via Enterprise Manager, Veeam ONE and Veeam Managed Backup Portal. my 2 cents.
