I can do backups, but as soon as I got to "mailbox restore", I get an ACN0004E.
We (foolishly, in my opinion) dropped TSM support, so I can't call IBM. IBM left TDPExc 6.1 in our PPA, as a courtesy. Following the docs, I've upgraded my server to the latest 5.5 code, installed baclient 6.1, and TDPExc 6.1, on our windows server 2008 x64.
The docs talk about requiring the "Microsoft Exchange VSS Integration Module version 5.5.2". All that's out there in the client updates directory is 5.5.0, which refuses to work with my version of BAClient anyway. I had thought the VSS integration was necessary only for VSS operations, and I due to extreme parsimony, there's just about exactly enough space on each server to hold exactly what they put on it, with lots of going back and "Do we have to put X on there? There's not enough space." So there's nothing useful we can do with VSS - just systemstate, and baclient temporary snapshots... Only legacy backups.
But, since the "Mailbox restore software and operating system requirements" table specifies that VSS integration module, without other reference to VSS - does mailbox restore require VSS? There's no public nformation on the topic available from IBM.
