Re: [ADSM-L] Anyone else doing replica backups of exchange datastores? Need some help please.

This is exactly how I am trying to get the replica backup to work. It is
running on the passive server and I believe the DSMAGENT configuration is
correct in ters of the proxy settings. I continue to work with IBM to get it to
work.
Hi John, You can't run a backup of a replica from the primary server. You must
be running that command on the passive server. The Microsoft Exchange Replica
Writer will be running on the passive server. That is the machine you need to
have DP/Exchange and the Windows BA Client installed and configured on. Also
keep in mind that it's the DSMAGENT (Windows BA Client) is the node that
actually sends the data to the TSM Server. It uses the proxy capability to
store the data on behalf of the DP/Exchange node. The service team can assist
you through this. Thank you, Del
