Isn't it strange how a picture of someone always looks quite different to how you've always imagined them to be :) -----Original Message----- From: bounce-9426881-8066...@lyris.sunbelt-software.com [mailto:bounce-9426881-8066...@lyris.sunbelt-software.com] On Behalf Of John Cook Sent: 28 September 2011 22:42 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Re: Backup of Exchange 2010 I'll be there!

Smith [mailto:mich...@smithcons.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 28, 2011 05:39 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues <exchangelist@lyris.sunbelt-software.com> Subject: RE: Backup of Exchange 2010 Really, what's the chance you are going to detect that before your backups expire? I'm giving a talk on this at Exchange Connections in Vegas at the end of October - please attend! (To Backup Or Not To Backup - That Is The Question! - that was my working title, they may have renamed it.) As long as SingleItemRecovery is enabled, your Deleted Item Retention and Deleted Mailbox Retention are set to reasonable (for your company) values, and you have a DAG copy in a "safe" location - the need for backups (other than making you feel "warm and fuzzy") is arguable. Dependent, of course, upon specific statutory needs not covered here. Regards, Michael B.

If you do backup to disk/tape, what type of retention do you have? And, yes, I know the retention issue is extremely subjective, depending on legal requirements, etc. Just curious. --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist CONFIDENTIALITY STATEMENT: The information transmitted, or contained or attached to or with this Notice is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain Protected Health Information (PHI), confidential and/or privileged material.
