How do I
use EXMERGE to make Brick-Level backups
of Exchange 2000/2003 mailboxes?
One of the most
important tasks for an Exchange
administrator is the regular,
day-by-day, backing up of all the
Exchange databases. This can be easily
accomplished by use of the built-in
NTBACKUP.EXE software found on your
Exchange 2000/2003 server.
Note: You can
also Backup Exchange 2000/2003 from a
Non-Exchange Server.
Some administrators
might choose to your 3rd-Party backup
tools, such as:
However, as stated
above (and in the Backing up Exchange
2000/2003 with NTBACKUP article), you do
NOT need to buy expensive 3rd-Party
tools just to backup your Exchange
server.
Then why bother with
expensive 3rd-Party backup tools? The
main reasons behind the usage of such
tools are their advanced scheduling
capabilities, advanced tape drive
management, and in some cases - the
ability to perform Brick-Level backups
of your Exchange mailboxes. |
