Not
with SIME.
SIME
integrates with Exchange to take a snapshot of the exchange database to a
flatfile that can be backed up to tape, mounted on another exchange
server.
basically the same as telling SQL to do a hot backup to a flat file,
then using netbackup to backup the flat file....no need for the SQL
agent.
Kenneth, are you mounting the snap on an second exchange server, starting
exchange services and backing it up from there???? if so, then yeah,
you would need to use the exchange agent to backup that
server.
you
should be just mounting the volume as a share on a regular windows server, and
backing it up as D:\, E:\ or whatever.....
can
you see the database files when you browse for restore, before performing the
actual restore?

NetBackup 5.1 – Solaris
Client: Exchange 2003 server.
I am using EMC SIME to backup Exchange. On the SIME server where the copy of the Exchange database is mounted, when I do a flat file backup of the Exchange database, I receive a return code of zero. But when I tried to restore the Exchange files, I only see the directories and never the actual database files. What am I missing and has anyone run into this problem?
Thanks,
Ken
