Re: [Veritas-bu] NetBackup 6.5 and Exchange 2007

Note that there will be a solution for NBU 6.0 MP5+ It is a patch that engineering is working on and you can get it if you get your sale rep to have it released to you. We have tested 6.0 MP5+ and 6.5 and both versions work for backup. Restore with recovery (mount and commit) to the original Storage Group fails for both 6.0 and 6.5. You can get the restore/recovery to work if you do it to a recovery storage group or if you do a restore and manualy do recovery via Exchange. Symantec knows of this bug and is working with Microsoft to resolve it.

You will need to go to 6.5 if you plan to backup the Storage groups via NBU, MS changed the database layout, now as to how to:…not quite sure, however what we have been doing to get around this in the meantime is creating a ntbackup job (assuming you have enough space) and backing up the SG locally, then having NBU back that up to tape. You can use task scheduler to perform the NTbackup. I’m sure there are somewhite papers on how to…

Hi All,

My Exchange guy is pushing to upgrade his EX to 2007 and I have to provide a solution. Currently we have NBU 6.5MP4 so I need to go to 6.5.

Has anybody tried it and can share some thoughts, problems, gotchas?

TIA
