Hello ,

Looks like you are trying to backup without using TDP or TDP is incorrectly
configured.

Are you using TDP for Exchange?? If not then read this redbook.


http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/pdfs/sg246147.pdf

This IBM Redbook explains how to use Tivoli Data Protection (TDP) for
Microsoft Exchange v.2.2 to perform backups and restores in your Exchange
environment. Tivoli Data Protection for Microsoft Exchange server performs
online backups of Microsoft Exchange server databases to Tivoli Storage
Manager (TSM) storage. We demonstrate how to back up and recover data on
Exchange 5.5 and Exchange 2000 on a single server installation and a
clustered environment. Windows 2000 (Service Pack 1) is used as the
operating system and Exchange 5.5 as well as Exchange 2000. However, we do
not cover backing up the operating system itself.

Version 2.2 provides new functionality as well as support for Exchange 2000.
The new version of Tivoli Data Protection for Exchange supports a very
important TSM feature: automatic expiration and version control by policy.
This frees users from having to explicitly delete backup objects in the
Tivoli Storage Manager server. TDP for Exchange supports LAN-free data
movement. We use TDP for Exchange to perform backups across a traditional
LAN, as well as utilizing TSM LAN-free to support backups across Storage
Area Networks (SANs).

This document is written for Exchange administrators as well as TSM
administrators with a need to understand the issues and considerations
pertinent to utilizing TSM and TDP to back up and restore Microsoft Exchange


Best Regards


Stephen

How do you take exchange server backup? I am getting below errors
everyday.
It's a 2K exchange server and the TSM version is 4.2.4.1 running on
Solaris 2.6.
