Re: NT / Exchange on a budget

W2K's version actually does allow backups to disk, which is way cool at home.  :)   Missy ----- Original Message ----- From: Lefkovics, William To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Sent: Thursday, September 06, 2001 1:18 PM Subject: RE: NT / Exchange on a budget 1) I believe that NTBackup (exchange aware) from WindowsNT does not allow backup to disk, only to tape.   2) Our users don't know whether they access 1 or 12 servers, or even what OS is on them.  They have multiple share mappings of course.     -----Original Message----- From: Admin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, September 05, 2001 11:10 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: NT / Exchange on a budget I can't afford the upgrade (at the moment), however doesn't the exchange aware Backup allow backing up to disk? Because the Exchange server will no longer be the file and print server unless I use DFS to map from the BDC/Exchange server to the PDC where the data actually resides.....   <Ideas running round in mind mode = ON>   ---[snip snip]--- -----Original Message----- From: Lefkovics, William [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 05 September 2001 18:18 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: NT / Exchange on a budget   That's not bad.   1) If you go to W2K, you can back exchange up to disk (did you mention the need to purchase a tape drive?) 2) Why do you have to teach your users that there are 2 servers?  They needn't know.     William Lefkovics, MCSE, A+     List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm
