>>>Why BLB = BAD. A true tale from my last company.
>>>After 3 months of banging their heads, the idiots at a 
>>>remote site got BLB & restores to work in test. So they ran 
>>>it on the production box. I was adamant that the Exchange 
>>>online backup be run first. That took about 2-3 hours. The 
>>>BLB took over 12 hours.
>>>
>>>So, the VP needed a message restored from the previous day 
>>>that was shift-deleted. Can't do it yet. BLB was still in 
>>>progress. He has to wait. The next day, they restore his 
>>>mailbox. And the message was not there! VP is unhappy. So 
>>>they go to the next day's tape (a day later). Still no 
>>>message. Seems like it came and went between BLB's. VP is 
>>>now beyond irate. Calls the CIO. Who calls me. I have 
>>>DumpsterAlwaysOn. Go into VP's mailbox and give him his 
>>>message in 2 minutes.
>>>
>>>Oh yes, most of their problems were permissions/UghServe 
>>>related. So the full restore did not work. While they had 
>>>"practiced" restores, they never opened a mailbox. Just 
>>>accepted the logging information that the restore was complete.
>>>
>>>Do not waste your time on BLB. Deleted Items Retention, 
>>>DumpsterAlwaysOn on an admin workstation, Circular logging 
>>>OFF. Practice restores. Read the FAQ. Sleep easy. And keep 
>>>the untrained away from the server.
