With BackupExec if you use the Agent for Microsoft Exchange Server you can backup the information store. Also it would be a good idea to backup the System State. You can set Backupexec to flush the exchange logs after a full backup. -----Original Message----- From: Luke Marioni [mailto:lmarioni@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, February 04, 2003 2:38 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] Definitive Backup List http://www.MSExchange.org/ Hi all, Does anyone know of the definitive list of what should and shouldn't be backed up in Exchange2000? I've had so many permutations of what should be backed up that I would appreciate a complete list of files, drives and stores that I would need to backup to restore my system from scratch. I run Veritas Backup Exec V 8.60 on W2k Sp2 E2k Sp2 Many thanks Luke Marioni Senior Systems Analyst ITG Europe River Plate House, 7-11 Finsbury Circus, London, EC2M 7EB, England.
