I’ve been told by my co-workers that you can’t restore to the
normal Exchange restore group if you do a FlashBackup backup. So unless you’re
doing your backups only for disaster recovery and will always restore only the
whole thing, FlashBackup isn’t the answer.
All that said, we get excellent performance from our Exchange
hosts without using FlashBackup.

I also noticed you can run flashbackup for “Exchange Database”. Is
that logical to do?

It depends on the average size of the TIFF images. If
they’re all little files (which our TIFF files are), then definitely yes,
FlashBackup will help.
For us, a FlashBackup typically cuts the backup time in half and
significantly reduces the load on the system being backed up.
You do individual file restores just like you do regular file
restores.

When
should FlashBackup be used? I have a Windows Box that I backup daily that has a
volume with about 330GB of tiff images. Would FlashBackup be a better option
than a regular Windows-NT policy taking into mind that I regularly restore
individual tiff images?
Best regards,
Anas
