I plan on using Windows 2000 backup to do online exchange backups to a file on a separate spindle/controller which will then be streamed to tape on a central LTO library.
I'm planning on doing a full backup each night, and maybe even a differential at lunchtime (our load is pretty light and the server is a good spec). I'd also like to get a decent backup of the server. If I just select all the drives I'll get skips of all the open exchange files. So, is it best to manually select all the directories, and the system state and EXCLUDE all of the \exchsrvr folders, or are there some exchange files that I really want to be backing up that aren't backed up by an online exchange backup? regards, Paul -- Paul Hutchings Network Administrator, MIRA Ltd.
