Hello Mario,
It lloks there is a bug in TDP for Mail 6.1.1. We have faced exactly the same 
problem immediately after upgrading to 6.1.1 (command line is working fine, but 
GUI gives this strange message). After short investigation I have recommnded 
our Exhange Admin to report this problem to IBM and they provided some 
workaround immediately. I know exactly that he is able to use backup/recovery 
from GUI with this workaround, but PMR is still opened. I am very sorry, I 
couldn't provide more detailed information, because we have weekends and 
holiday till Monday hire. If you need to use GUI urgently just contact IBM and 
they will help you.
Regards,
Grigori

Subject: [ADSM-L] TDP for Exchange AD error

Hi list,

I´ve just installed the TDP for Exchange 6.1.1.0 on a Windows 2003 Server 
running MSCS.....when trying to verify my installation I got the error message 
below:


C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\TDPExchange>tdpexcc query exchange 
/excserv=excluster

IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Mail:
Data Protection for Microsoft Exchange Server
Version 6, Release 1, Level 1.0
(C) Copyright IBM Corporation 1998, 2009. All rights reserved.

Querying Exchange Server to gather storage group information, please wait...

The operation could not be performed because object 'EXCLUSTER' could not be 
found on domain controller 'domain.controller.local'.


The object 'EXCLUSTER' is the actual Cluster Nodename, not the machine 
hostname, as recommended by TDP for Exchange Installation and Configuration 
Guide. This is a 2 node MSCS simple configuration.

I´ve checked the AD and the object exists there.

Any ideas?

Mario
