Re: [Veritas-bu] Backing up Exchange 07 on a backup network
You can use a backup network for exchange backups, however, you need add entries to your hosts file on the backup server. Use the name of the exchange server in the hosts file but use the ip of the exchange backup network interface. You will have to ensure that the backup server looks to the hosts file before going to DNS, but other than that it just works. This way netbackup can use the real exchange server name to talk to exchange, but TCP can resolve the backup network interface This is how we do it and it works well -Original Message- From: veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu [mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu] On Behalf Of spaldam Sent: Friday, December 19, 2008 10:54 AM To: VERITAS-BU@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: [Veritas-bu] Backing up Exchange 07 on a backup network We tried this, and came to the conclusion that it won't work because of the way Exchange and the NetBackup extension for Exchange work together.

Have you tried adding some static routes for the backup traffic to your media and master servers on the client?
