I'm forwarding this question on behalf of a fellow worker:

> The documentation states that if you have circular logging on, the ADSM
> backup product cannot be configured to perform incremental backups, and
> that the only backup option that should be used is a full backup.  The
> documentation is a bit confusing it that it appears that you associate
> circular logging with the Exchange Directory, Private and Public
> information stores.
>
> Our NT application, system and security logs are all configured for
> circular logging.
>
> The Exchange related NT services are not brought down during our tape
> backup application which is Seagate with the Exchange option.  Our
> Exchange implementation is required to be a 7 X 24 operation.
>
> So what do you suggest would be the best configuration using ADSM.
>
> DOES ANYONE OUT THERE USE THE EXCHANGE ADSM AGENT WITH CIRCULAR LOGGING
> ON?  OR HAVE A WAY WHERE THEY TURN IT OFF FOR WHEN THE BACKUPS RUN?
