I know there are many disadvantages of doing this especially since the fact that you are doing double the work and your tape could run for several hours more than if you were to just backup the IS and Dir but can a brick level backup cause problems with your logs and cause your Exchanges services like the IS service to fail? Just curious. We have a client that insists on doing it this way. Although in my brick level scheme im only backing up the Inbox and no other Outlook folder. I just want to maek sure that by doing brick-level im not going to further mess their exchange server.

RE: Brick Level backups using Veritas 8.6
We have a mixture of 98 and 2000, and while it doesn't work on those folders in 98 (at least that's been my experience before I upgraded to OL2K) it works on Outlook 2000 for tasks, calendar, contacts journals. Just tested by shift+del on all of those folders and was able to recover. It would make sense that it would not work for psts, since they are not part of the message store, therefore not subject to deleted items retention. You might want to consider going to OL2K yourself for this purpose ;-) .. jd -Original Message- From: Neil Raggett [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, February 24, 2002 8:59 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Brick Level backups using Veritas 8.6 Just found out on TechNet that it varies between outlook 98 and 2000, we still use 98.

I know there are many disadvantages of doing this especially since the fact that you are doing double the work and your tape could run for several hours more than if you were to just backup the IS and Dir but can a brick level backup cause problems with your logs and cause your Exchanges services like the IS service to fail? Just curious. We have a client that insists on doing it this way. Although in my brick level scheme im only backing up the Inbox and no other Outlook folder. I just want to maek sure that by doing brick-level im not going to further mess their exchange server.
