Hi Praveen
When you take backup of complete information store, irrespective of the
backup type followed , all transaction logs, check point files would be
backed up

http://www.MSExchange.org/
Thanks for the info. Initialy i used NT backup utility and now i am using
Arc server backup. I am taking regular backups. But when i read this artical
http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/Exchange-Dial-tone-Restore-Method-Part2.
html in fig 10 you can see a folder called "logs" is selected but i cant
locate it in my NT backup or Arc server utility. I know that logs are stored
in <drive:>\program files\exchsrv\MDBDATA\ by default, but these are not
listed in NT backup utility or Arc backup so that i can just click and
select the logs to be backed up. I need to manualy go to the directory and
select it.
So i want to know should i manualy select these logs or if i just select
storage goups will this take care of logs also?? Can you please explain.
Regards

Praveen,
You should be using an Exchange aware backup package (built-in backup on
WS03 included) which handles the complexities of taking a consistent set of
files. The detail (up to a point) is not yours to worry about. That said
your backup is no use unless you're practiced in restoring it under a
varying set of circumstances and then a knowledge of the details will be
very useful. Get backing up and aim to understand what is going on and
practice recovery. Needless to say you can drown in information from
Microsoft and there are several worthy Exchange 2003 books which can help
out. Practice recovery in the lab is essential.
As you're asking the question I presume you're not well acquainted with
the complexities this subject can offer. Keep it simple to start with and
backup to tape or disk using Microsoft's built-in backup would be my initial
approach. Once you understand better what you're after the complexities if
needed can follow.

Hi,
When i just backup Storage groups will it automatically take backup of
associated log & chk files or do i have to specifically take the backup of
these critical file?
