Hi everyone, I am having some problems schedulibng the exchange server backups the way I want too. I have: Windows 2003 server Exchange 2003 server NTBackup 4 SDLT (320GB) tape drives What seems to happen is that if I use media pools, and "new" tapes, it will only write one backup set to each tape (1 tape in each of the four drives). If I write one file to each tape first manually, and then use the media pool, it will write multiple sets to the first tape, but never continue on to the next. I would like to hear about how others are doing this, using NTBackup. (NOTE: Please don't suggest that I use BackupExec and the Mail agent "Brick Level" because we used to do it that way, and it takes way to long, we have too much data on the server). Tony
