Exchange 2010 backup

Hello All;   So we are new to Symantec Backup Exec 2012.  We are using it to back up our exchange server 2010 & I'm looking for best practices. I've read over: http://www.symantec.com/business/...

    Full server backup

    If you want to fully protect your exchange server you need to select all the resources (c: system state and exchange) and because BE is smart enough to understand that you have selected databases from the exchange node it will not backup the EDB and log files twice.

     

    Exchange part of the backup

    If you backup the exchange database using the full backup method, it will backup the database (EDB) and the log files (.log) from the folders and after the backup is completed successfully it will purge the logs from the log folder
