Folks,
We're running Netbackup 6.5.2.
We're just now setting up a Netbackup Policy for
Exchange 2007 running in a CCR cluster.
The backup has been defined to "backup the
passive node first, but if not available, backup
the active node".
The question I have is client definition in the
Snapshot policy (within Exchange Policy) required
to backup the Exchange database:
When we put both physical CCR cluster node
names in the policy's client list, it starts backups
for both nodes, and looks like it does
"snapshots" for both nodes, when only the "passive node"
should be snapshotting, and getting
backed up. Why is that happening ?? Anybody have a
"passive node" Exchange backup
set up and working ???
An obvious solution would be to take the
"active" node server out of the policy's client list, but
then if a failover occurred , and the "passive"
node switched to what is now the "active" node,
would the "passive" node backup still work
without that physical server in the policy's client list ??
The Netbackup documentation update for 6.5.2 is not too
clear on this !!
Thanks Much,
Ed Scheef
