Re: [ADSM-L] TSM TDP EXCHANGE INCREMENTAL BACKUP

Sorry, I meant to include the DSMerror.log.

I restarted Exchange Replication service first and then the schedule kicked 
off.  Still failed.

Hi Jeannie,

Did the problem still happen after restarting the Microsoft Exchange 
Replication service?
... or are you waiting for the next schedule to run?

How about the DSMERROR.LOG file in the "baclient" directory?
What's in there? This file will have the best chance to contain the error. Keep 
in mind that DP/Exchange VSS backups utilize the BA Client "DSMAGENT" for the 
snapshots and data movement, therefore you need to look in the DSMERROR.LOG 
file for related DSMAGENT logging.

Thanks,

Del
