Joe, Just one thought... Also, keep in mind that all backup (and restore) events for TDP for Exchange are logged in the TSM server activity log... including their success or failure. That way you can go to one central location to find out the status of the backups, i.e. you would not have to go to each Exchange server to find out the status.
