You cannot do brick-level backups with NTBackup. Which is fine, because...
3.11 Q: ...Brick level...
A: Brick level = BAD. It is very slow, uses a lot more tape, and has
gobs of limitations.
Instead, use The Ed Crowley Never Restore Method.

Subject: RE: Backing up the M Drive
I was looking into the built in backup and noticed Exchange Options.
Though I could not see anyway of selectively restoring only one mailbox
via this method, or public folder using this backup?
Is there a way of choosing which mailboxes you do and don't want to
restore using the built in backup? When I try to expand the "Microsoft
Exchange" tab it asks me which server do I want to query. I give it
one, but the box never becomes un-greyed, the exchange server is local
to where I am trying to run Microsoft Backup.
The option for "Microsoft Exchange Server" is available and I can choose
the server I want, but like I said previously this does not seem to
allow for selective restore/backup on a per mailbox scale.

Ouch. Don't. Everything I've read says that this will be the seventh
sign
that brings about Armageddon.
Use NTBackup on your Exchange 2000 Server to backup to a file, then
backup
that file to tape using Arcserve.

Subject: Backing up the M Drive
I honestly have come to conclusion today that my arcserve backups would
be a lot better off backing up the M drive, and not using the Exchange
Agent at all.
Does anyone else get this feeling ?
