What methods are available to backup exchange mailboxes other than using
the MSEXCH:MB saveset or Networker User. I know that I can specify
individual mailboxes by using the -L option with a file list but this is
not suitable as I would have to keep updating the list when new
mailboxes are created or when old mailboxes are deleted.

 

I would like to instruct networker to backup mailboxes as a number of
jobs rather than one large job (which may fail and then the mailbox
backup must start from the beginning). I have tried to use...

MSEXCH:MB/a*-f*

MSEXCH:MB/g*-k*

...but this does not work (this is the netbackup method).

 

Can I use exclude directives with networker to exclude troublesome
mailboxes? There are some mailboxes that report errors each evening and
sometimes the backup fails on these with inactivity timeout (have
changed the timeout from 30 to 300 as per the manual). If I can exclude
these I could at least complete a proof of concept to show that the
mailbox backup is capable of completing.
