FWIW,
Did this recently.
Did you upgrade the b/a client to 6.2.1? That is a requirement for Exch 2010.
We ran FULLs, COPYs, DIFFs, and INCRs successfully and all of them bound
correctly as specified in VSSPOLICY.
(We did not have /config in the .cmd file because we were using the default and
only 1 nodename.)
Did you activate the mgmt class/policy set that you specified in VSSPOLICY?
If you still can't get the VSSPOLICY to bind correctly, I suggest you call
support.
Whether you run FULLS for daily is up to you. In my case, the FULL is 800G, so
it is more practical to run FULL on the weekend and DIFF for daily, as only
about 12G changes per day.
The difference between FULL and COPY, is that the FULL truncates/clears the
log, and COPY does not. So I would recommend COPY for your Monthly and Yearly
backups.

Subject: [ADSM-L] exchange 2010 vss backups
hello,
i want to save daily, monthly and yearly backups of exchange 2010
databases.
daily, monthly and yearly backups have there own nodenames, all in the same
domain
vss backups work over ba client (another domain)
i have implemented tdpexc.cfg's and dsm.opts 3 times and vsspolicy is set
right in the config-files.
i did backups with the *.cmd files, with the options /configfile
and /tsmoptfile to start the right node.
everything is working
now what i found out was.
1. when you open "restore"button in the tdp gui's, then all backups show
the "standard" mgmtclass "daily", also sql queries on the tsm server did
not show,
if the backups are going to the right mgmtclass.
2. in the past, there was the recommendation to backup "full" for daily and
"copy" for the others. Is this also true for Exchange 2010?
the manual for tsm for mail is very confusing, i need a manual for exchange
2010 only!
let me say, tsm manuals are often very confusing.
with best regards
stefan savoric
