Using Tivoli Data Protection for Microsoft Exchange Server

This IBM Redbook explains how to use Tivoli Data Protection (TDP) for Microsoft Exchange v.2.2 to perform backups and restores in your Exchange environment. Tivoli Data Protection for Microsoft Exchange server performs online backups of Microsoft Exchange server databases to Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) storage. We demonstrate how to back up and recover data on Exchange 5.5 and Exchange 2000 on a single server installation and a clustered environment. Windows 2000 (Service Pack 1) is used as the operating system and Exchange 5.5 as well as Exchange 2000. However, we do not cover backing up the operating system itself.

Version 2.2 provides new functionality as well as support for Exchange 2000. The new version of Tivoli Data Protection for Exchange supports a very important TSM feature: automatic expiration and version control by policy. This frees users from having to explicitly delete backup objects in the Tivoli Storage Manager server. TDP for Exchange supports LAN-free data movement. We use TDP for Exchange to perform backups across a traditional LAN, as well as utilizing TSM LAN-free to support backups across Storage Area Networks (SANs).

This document is written for Exchange administrators as well as TSM administrators with a need to understand the issues and considerations pertinent to utilizing TSM and TDP to back up and restore Microsoft Exchange.
