Setup DP Exchange 2007 + TSM

[jojo72]

I'm trying to create a better perspective of the TSM system and Exchange. TSM system is delivered to us for 2 years ago, and I was not involved in setup of TSM system at this time. Today we run Exchange 2007 with TSM ver 5.5. The setup is following:

Deleted Item 90 days retention
Deleted Mailbox 400 days retention

5 Storage Groups in Exchange 2007

Data Protection for Exchange ver 5.5.100 (Storage Manager for Mail) is installed on the Exchange server

How can I obtain further information about how the setup is set up and how long data is stored in the Exchange on TSM? Can I find the deleted mailbox more than 400 days retention in TSM?

I have already studied the batch file excfull.cmd and dsm.opt on the Exchange server without having to be understand better. I have tried to run different command as query schedule and query node at CLI. I am still novice at TSM so you will know this.

Find out what domain the exchange DP is in and then issue a Q CO <DOMAIN NAME> and then post it here. Your retention settings will be based off of the settings shown from the query.
