Orin, I can confirm, what Bill has already told you, from first-hand experience using TDP for Exchange in W2K3 environment that it works flawlessly. You do not need to setup another temp. box to do that, this is the main purpose of RSG in W2K3! You do not need to dismount any production stores

I would like to exclude the Public Folder database within a certain Storage Group (SG) in Exchange 2003 from FULL backup, but it seems that I can only specify SG for backup and not any specific Mailbox Store (database) within an SG. The TDPEXEC (GUI) even the TDPEXCC (CLI) backup all the

Thank you very much Del. I knew about the logs being associated per SG, but did not put the two facts together. I guess my only other option is to create another SG and move the Public Folder db to it and exclude it. Thanks again for your feedback, much appreciated. Khalid -Original
