Hi all
There is one major problem with Exmerge that the Backup Exec 9 Exchange
agent resolves. I refer to loss of Single Instance Storage. A restore
from Exmerge could well find you with a database that is twice the size
if the original one. Ntbackup is not a good way to backup Exchange and
the Open File agent will almost certainly corrupt the database.
Partially committed transaction logs is the main reason and them being
out of Sync with Information store(s). Finally Exmerge cannot be
scheduled.
Deleted Item retention etc is fine but what happens when someone comes
back in three months time and says I deleted a message and I need it
back. I have had this problem many times and the server that the
message(s) was\were originally on had been physically removed long
since.
Hope that helps.
Regards,
Paul Lemonidis.

You are correct the Windows 2000 backup program does not support
individual
mailbox backup/restore, but then again why would you want to do that?,
if
you implement deleted item retention and mail retention you don't really
need to perform mailbox restores, if you really want to then look at
Exmerge
as a way of backing up individual mailboxes.
This group is probably one of the best lists there is, we all have a
good
relationship with each other, and I have even had people from this list
travel to training centers to attend Exchange classes that I deliver,
another great source of information are the public Microsoft newsgroups:

I don't want to drag this issue out more than we have to but NTBACKUP
doesn't support backup/restore of individual mailboxes/email.
BTW, you guys are awesome...what ever did we do before message boards?

It has a method of using ntbackup to backup your exchange server. A good
read.
