Thanks for all the advice, whats the latest version of BE? -----Original Message----- From: Andy David [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 07 March 2002 12:58 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Online backup of Exchange 5.5 with Veritas BE 8.5 More than double! Use good deleted item retention policies, keep a recovery server at the ready and practice your restores frequently and update your BE! -----Original Message----- From: Niki Blowfield [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, March 07, 2002 7:54 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Online backup of Exchange 5.5 with Veritas BE 8.5 Hi Andy, Yes, I was doing a flat file backup. I've removed the exchsrvr folders now though. Does including the mailbox option in effect double up your backup by virtue of you backing up the information store? Thanks Nik -----Original Message----- From: Andy David [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 07 March 2002 12:48 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Online backup of Exchange 5.5 with Veritas BE 8.5 Yes. And forget the mailbox stuff. Waste of time and tapes. -----Original Message----- From: Niki Blowfield [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, March 07, 2002 7:46 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Online backup of Exchange 5.5 with Veritas BE 8.5 Hi Thanks for the response Well, we do have the exchange agent I've altered the selection list to include the 3 Exchange options (Directory, Information Store, and Mailboxes) do I now exclude the exchsrvr folders on the normal backup folder selections? Thanks Nik -----Original Message----- From: Mike Tonazzi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 07 March 2002 12:24 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: AW: Online backup of Exchange 5.5 with Veritas BE 8.5 I don't know what advice you were given, but you cannot just do a normal backup without stopping the exchange services. The services are accessing these files while beeing online. That's why the backup program cannot save them to the tape. If you install the Veritas Exchange Agent you will be able to backup your exchange files while your exchange service is online. Furthermore you can backup and restore user's postoffices. If you backup the whole database as you think of now, you will only be able to restore the whole thing at once.
