Try just backing up the IS and the directory. Don't run the backup on anything else - no drives, and have you made sure you have excluded the swap file from the backup? Anyway, try a real Exchange-only backup and then see if it locks up.

I came in today the backup (backup Exec 8.0) was still running it seemed to finish one drive but the other did not finish. So I attempted to cancel the job that was running but it wouldnt cancel. Then I tried to stop the backup exec services and thats when my server locked up. I couldnt do anything wasnt able to log on to exchange or even log off the server. Has anyone ever had a problem like this with their backup software?
