Backing up Exchange 2007 SP2 w/BackupExec 12.5
My BE server is Windows Server 2008 R2 and my Exchange 2007 SP2 server is Windows Server 2008.
I read the instructions here: http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/288777.htm and it tells me to install the Exchange 2007 Management tools on the BE server. I can't install the tools because Exchange 2007 can't install on Server 2008 R2 or atleast I don't know how because it won't let me through the Exchange installer.
Does anyone know a work around?
Does anyone know if you can still backup/restore without installing the tools?
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
David

- David,
Backup Exec 12.5 is not supported on Windows Server 2008 R2 as a media server. I would suggest putting it on a supported OS, such as Windows 2008 or 2003 R2. Please review our Software Compatibility List (link below) for a full list of supported OS's for a media server.
