If the disk backup is successful, but fails to tape, then could be due to "staging".

On the Exchange server, browse to the following path in the registry ~

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Symantec\Backup Exec For Windows\Backup Exec\Engine\Exchange

Create a new String named "OnHostTemp" and set the value as C:\Temp (or any other NTFS, local volume on the Exchange server which has plenty of free space to stage the entire Information Store)

Restart the BE services on the BE server and the Exchange server and then retry the backup.
