Thanks Del -- And thanks to everybody who worked to get this out for us! Question: I see the download packages, but I don't see a new manual in the Info center.
Is everything the same with 2010 as far as syntax and procedures go so we can just use the current 6.1 book? -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ads...@vm.marist.edu] On Behalf Of Del Hoobler Sent: Monday, June 07, 2010 11:30 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] TSM now supports Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 Tivoli Storage Manager for Mail - Data Protection for Exchange 6.1.2 and IBM Tivoli Storage FlashCopy Manager 2.2 now support Microsoft Exchange Server 2010. There are a few important things to take note of. Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 included some significant changes, a number of which affect backup and restore. For example, under Exchange Server 2010: * Legacy-style backups (aka "streaming" backups) are no longer supported by Microsoft * VSS-style backups are the only supported online backup method * Exchange storage groups were removed completely * The Recovery Database replaced the Recovery Storage Group (RSG) * Database Availability Groups (DAGs) have replaced LCR, CCR, and SCR replication * Single Copy Clustering (SCC) is no longer available Exchange Server 2010 support will require two (2) TSM packages to be downloaded, installed, and configured for VSS operations: 1. Data Protection for Exchange 6.1.2 x64 package: ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/storage/tivoli-storage-management/maintenance /tivoli-data-protection/ntexch/v612/x64/ 2. TSM BA Windows Client 6.2.1 x64 package: ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/storage/tivoli-storage-management/maintenance /client/v6r2/Windows/x64/v621/ Note: If you are a FlashCopy Manager customer, the new FlashCopy Manager 2.2 package contains both packages. Here are details about the TSM/FCM functionality for Exchange Server 2010: * Full Exchange Server 2010 support * Command-line Interface (CLI) * Graphical User Interface (GUI) * Database Availability Group (DAG) support * Query Exchange Information o Shows all databases with various attributes o Shows VSS component information * Backup o Full, Copy, Incremental, Differential o Back up from production database o Back up from a passive database copy (replica) o Back up to TSM Server o Back up to LOCAL snapshot o Offloaded backup to TSM * Query Backups o Shows all backups with their attributes * Restore o Restore from TSM Server o Restore into production database o Restore into "Recovery Database" o VSS Instant Restore from LOCAL snapshot o VSS Fast Restore from LOCAL snapshot o Mailbox Restore (IMR) * FlashCopy Manager and MMC Integration Note: Exchange Server 2010 VSS backups to the TSM Server are enabled without the requirement for a TSM for Copy Services or FlashCopy Manager license.
