Windows Server Backup
Windows Server Backup is a feature in Windows Server 2008 R2 that provides
a set of wizards and tools for you to perform basic backup and recovery tasks
for the server it is installed on. This feature has been redesigned and
introduces new technology. The previous backup feature (Ntbackup.exe) in
earlier versions of Windows is no longer available. See "Performing Backup of
Your Server" on page 48 for more information.
