With version 9.1 you can only back up to a local disk. It does not recognize UNC or mapped drives. So, you would have to install a local copy of the media server.

You need to create a media server (I believe) and a Backup-to-disk folder on the exchange box. The backup-to-disk folder only on the exchange box WOULD send I believe all the data to central and then to the folder. A media server on the box, would maintain the data (like central/but local) and send it to the folder. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Fyodorov, Andrey FTL Sent: Wednesday, February 09, 2005 2:11 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: BackupExec backing up Exchange to disk So is your data being pulled over the network from the Exchange server to the array? What we are trying to achieve is high speed of backups and restores, so we have a very large RAID volume on the Exchange server itself just for the backups. Now if I were to use a central BackupExec server to perform these backups to disk, I wouldn't want to pull the data over the network to the BackupExec server and then push it back to the Exchange server to be written onto the dedicated backup RAID volume. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Shields, Anthony Sent: Wednesday, February 09, 2005 1:40 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: BackupExec backing up Exchange to disk You want to backup your Exchange server on the same machine? Yes Veritas can backup to disk. We have a 2TB array just for that purpose. It hangs off the central Veritas server and backs up all the servers including Exchange on to the array. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Fyodorov, Andrey FTL Sent: Wednesday, February 09, 2005 12:26 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: BackupExec backing up Exchange to disk I believe that BackupExec can now backup to disk instead of to tape. Does anyone know whether I would then need to have a full installation of BackupExec on each Exchange server to perform a "to disk" backup of information stores onto a disk that's local to the Exchange server? Or can I just have the central installation of BackupExec and the Exchange agent will be smart enough to backup data onto a disk that's local to the exchange server?
