In comparison to one our full backups, that appears to be what you have below:
1. Full Backup 2. TDP You are right, "FILE" as description of the type of backup can be misleading if it's a TDP backup, especially considering that you cannot restore a single "file" from a full Exchange TDP backup, unless that "file" is an entire Information Store, Public Folders, etc. -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Daad Ali Sent: Friday, July 06, 2007 2:34 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ADSM-L] TDP or File Another Newbie question, I have a couple questions about the following query for my exchange backup: select FILESPACE_NAME,STATE,type,HL_NAME,LL_NAME,backup_date,DEACTIVATE_DATE from backups where node_name='EXCHANGE02' and STATE !='INACTIVE_VERSION' When I run the above query I get the following output FILESPACE_NAME: EXCHANGE02_PH\Directory STATE: ACTIVE_VERSION TYPE: FILE HL_NAME: \meta\ LL_NAME: full BACKUP_DATE: 2007-05-31 03:50:02.000000 DEACTIVATE_DATE: FILESPACE_NAME: EXCHANGE02_PH\Information Store STATE: ACTIVE_VERSION TYPE: FILE HL_NAME: \data\0000\Public\ LL_NAME: full BACKUP_DATE: 2007-05-28 02:02:42.000000 DEACTIVATE_DATE: FILESPACE_NAME: EXCHANGE02_PH\Information Store STATE: ACTIVE_VERSION TYPE: FILE HL_NAME: \logs\ LL_NAME: full BACKUP_DATE: 2007-05-28 02:02:42.000000 DEACTIVATE_DATE: FILESPACE_NAME: EXCHANGE02_PH\Information Store STATE: ACTIVE_VERSION TYPE: FILE HL_NAME: \meta\ LL_NAME: full BACKUP_DATE: 2007-05-31 03:54:22.000000 DEACTIVATE_DATE: My questions are: 1- Is this a full exchange backup or incremental? 2- The Type is showing as FILE, is this correct? is it a file backup or a TDP backup? thanks in Advance, Daad --------------------------------- Ask a question on any topic and get answers from real people.
