Zosi,

One session is most likely the scheduler, and the
other session is TDP for Exchange. You could change your
scheduled backup script to simply launch the
TDP for Exchange backup and exit.
To do this, place "start /B" in front of your commands.
For example:

TDP for Exchange Version 1.1:
   start /B excdsmc /backup:IS,full >> excfull.log

TDP for Exchange Version 2.2:
   start /B tdpexcc backup IS full >> excfull.log

(By the way, make sure you are running either
TDP for Exchange 1.1.1.01 or the new version 2.2.0.)

Thanks,

Del

Two sessions running when the Adsm backup schedule run to backup the
Exchange db using the AdsmConnect Agent.
One is idle and the other one is running (recvW) in the Session State.
Any idea?
