Yes, I am mounting it to the SIME server.  Yes, I can see the database
files.  Yes, I even tried copying these files to a different directory.
That is what I don't understand.  I have no exclude list yet when a
backup runs for that directory, only the directories are backed up, not
the files themselves.  I only know this is because when I bring up the
restore screen, I only see directories.  The backup has a returned code
of zero.

Not with SIME.

=20

SIME integrates with Exchange to take a snapshot of the exchange
database to a flatfile that can be backed up to tape, mounted on another
exchange server.

=20

basically the same as telling SQL to do a hot backup to a flat file,
then using netbackup to backup the flat file....no need for the SQL
agent.

=20

Kenneth, are you mounting the snap on an second exchange server,
starting exchange services and backing it up from there???? if so, then
yeah, you would need to use the exchange agent to backup that server.

=20

you should be just mounting the volume as a share on a regular windows
server, and backing it up as D:\, E:\ or whatever.....

=20

can you see the database files when you browse for restore, before
performing the actual restore?

        NetBackup 5.1 - Solaris

        Client:  Exchange 2003 server.

        =20

        I am using EMC SIME to backup Exchange.  On the SIME server
where the copy of the Exchange database is mounted, when I do a flat
file backup of the Exchange database, I receive a return code of zero.
But when I tried to restore the Exchange files, I only see the
directories and never the actual database files.  What am I missing and
has anyone run into this problem?

        =20

        Thanks,

        Ken
