Wayne,

When I performed my testing I did not have any problems with
full/incremental. But when we implemented TDP for Exchange we opted for
daily fulls for faster recovery. We are using two nodenames. One for
short term dailies (10 days retention).
 And another that is used once a month for long term retention of three
years. 

Duane

Subject: Exchange backup question


We just implemented the TDP for exchange. Our exchange admin just got
back from Microsoft exchange class and is being told to only perform
full backups of Exchange. She has been warned that incremental are not
reliable with exchange will just cause us problems. I can't see why...
Worked ok for us during testing.

Does anyone know of any problems with the full/incremental strategy?
Have you ever had problems recovering exchange using the TDP with
full/incremental 

Thanks,
Wayne
