[ADSM-L] TSM now supports Microsoft Exchange Server 2010
2010-06-07 11:32:16
Tivoli Storage Manager for Mail - Data Protection for Exchange 6.1.2
and IBM Tivoli Storage FlashCopy Manager 2.2 now support Microsoft
Exchange Server 2010.
There are a few important things to take note of.
Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 included some significant changes,
a number of which affect backup and restore.
For example, under Exchange Server 2010:
* Legacy-style backups (aka "streaming" backups) are no longer
supported by Microsoft
* VSS-style backups are the only supported online backup method
* Exchange storage groups were removed completely
* The Recovery Database replaced the Recovery Storage Group (RSG)
* Database Availability Groups (DAGs) have replaced LCR, CCR, and SCR
replication
* Single Copy Clustering (SCC) is no longer available
Exchange Server 2010 support will require two (2) TSM packages
to be downloaded, installed, and configured for VSS operations:
1. Data Protection for Exchange 6.1.2 x64 package:
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/storage/tivoli-storage-management/maintenance/tivoli-data-protection/ntexch/v612/x64/
2. TSM BA Windows Client 6.2.1 x64 package:
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/storage/tivoli-storage-management/maintenance/client/v6r2/Windows/x64/v621/
Note: If you are a FlashCopy Manager customer, the new
FlashCopy Manager 2.2 package contains both packages.
Here are details about the TSM/FCM functionality for Exchange Server 2010:
* Full Exchange Server 2010 support
* Command-line Interface (CLI)
* Graphical User Interface (GUI)
* Database Availability Group (DAG) support
* Query Exchange Information

o Back up from production database

Copy Services or FlashCopy Manager license.
