You have to identify the exchange virtual server name in the tdpexc
command. Not the opt file.

This is in my excfull.cmd

start /b tdpexcc backup * full /tsmoptfile=dsm_st.opt
/excserver="exchange servername"/logfile=excfull.log 

You will also need /excserver="exchange servername" in the command line
when you launch the gui for restores or manual backups.

We have been using TDP for Exchange successfully for over a year now,
but not running clusters.  We only have the registered node name in the
opt file, which I believe does not set the Exchange name.  From
Scheduling we call excfull.cmd (comes with install), on the local host
that defines and interacts with Exchange by running the TDP client. 

Hope this helps.

Subject: TDP for Exchange

Hi *SM-ers!
Our Exchange department is trying to install DP for Exchange on a
Windows 2003 cluster. When we start the TDP client we receive the
following error:

ACN5237E Unable to communicate with the Microsoft Exchange Server.

The tdpexc.log shows the following line:

12/10/2004 15:16:50 Exchange Server               : EVS3

While the dsm.opt in the TDP directory states nodename KL1010TC-EVS3.
TDP uses the nodename parameter to set the Exchange Server name, right?
If not, where do I change this? Thank you very much for any reply in
advance!!! Kindest regards, Eric van Loon KLM Royal Dutch Airlines
