EMC's business continuance volume can stop the Exchange services for a short time and 
mirror the files, then split the mirror, then start the Exchange services again. You 
can do whatever you want with the split mirror image.

But that's like 1 million bucks.

Andrey,

That's true.  But you know, upon reading the archives (shoulda done that _before_ I 
posted the question!!), I don't think I want to use eseutil on a regular basis, unless 
it's necessary.  Do you know of any other (3rd-party) app that would do this, or am I 
just barking up the wrong tree?

Eric

10GB Eseutil will take a couple of hours I think.

Subject: Offline backup of Exch2k - options



We have a remote office connected via T1.  They have their own server
(Exch2k Enterprise SP3 , Win2k Server SP3), and the database is close to
10Gb.  Running an online backup (nightly) over the T1 is taking waaay
too long.  It's been suggested that we perform an offline backup, bring
the stores back online, & shoot the backed up files down the T1 later.
I have the procedure to this using eseutil (Q296788), but I would like
to know if anyone else has any other options.

TIA,
