Backing up Lotus Domino Databases?

[Kalle_Saarinen]

Hello,
I already asked this question about Microsoft SQL databases and had to ask this about Lotus also because I couldn't find direct anwswer from the manual.

So, if I'm backing up my Lotus DB's using BE agent should I remove the BD files from filesystem backup to avoid duplicate backups?

When using backup job test run the reported backup selection total size is about 40Gb lager than servers disk capacity. I think this is because of the Lotus databases. Haven't tested "real" Lotus backup yet.

Thanks.

Hello,

Could you please elaborate on the following

" So, if I'm backing up my Lotus DB's using BE agent should I remove the BD files from filesystem backup to avoid duplicate backups?"

Are you running the Lotus backup job on a backup to disk folder?

Thanks

Sorry I misplelled DB -> database. :)

I'm not using backup to disk. Just directly to tape.
