The Exchange agent allows these programs to do an on-line backup of the databases, so the Exchange services don't have to be shut down.

I am seeing that most Backup Solutions have an extra MS Exchange Agent. But some of them don't allow individual Mailbox or Public Folder restore. If their Exchange Agent doesn't go into the Public and Private IS why have an exchange agent, why not just back up the files with a standard backup? I guess I figured that an Exchange Backup module's purpose was to get inside of the public and private IS and back up individual stuff. Then again maybe my knowledge of Exchange is lacking. :) -cm _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
