Backup Exchange DAG using NetBackup - using NetApp storage

Hi,

What is the best way to backup Exchange DAG using NetBackup - we are using NetApp storage for Exchange

We we NetApp snapmirror for DR. 

One Exchange node in EU and other is US, we have two active / passive DB in both location.

For granular restore and long term backup we want to use NetBackup.

What is the best way to backup the Exchange in this scenario?

Thanks

    Check out the nb guide for Exchange: it'll describe granular recovery and so forth. I dont think you can integrate it somehow with SnapMirror but I could be wrong, though in fairness I read your statement as using snapmirror for DR only.

    I use it for long term backup . Not quite sure how SMirror does your DR: does this mean the design EU/US does not cover DR : we run active / passive and the passive we back up and they will also provide the DR.
