Hello Grigori,

The first thing I notice is that you said:

   "We also installed TDPE 6.1.3.3"

You should install Data Protection for Exchange 6.4.
This has full DAG support including configuration wizards
that will handle all of this for you

"backup_archive_client_node" is the NODENAME of the
BA Client (DSMAGENT) on the actual Exchange Server.
I am guessing these will be "MB1" and "MB2" in your case.

"data_protection_node" is the NODENAME of the
DP/Exchange node. I am guessing these will be
something like "MB1_EXC" and "MB2_EXC" in your case.

You won't need one for the CAS server if you don't
have any mailboxes on it.

Again, I really recommend that you install and use
Data Protection for Exchange 6.4 since it has full
Exchange Server DAG support including the ability
to manage all Exchange Server database backups
under a common code (DAGNODE).

Thanks,

Del
