Circular logging

Well, I noticed there is already posts about this:

The job failed with the following error: Incremental and differential backups are not possible because Microsoft Exchange is configured for circular logging.

And I know how to circumvent it.

However, is it possible to EXCLUDE the backup of the database and logs entirely? Really dont need to run that on the incremental backups. So I can skip that error log everytime the daily backups run.

The only thing I am intressted in backing up is the mailboxes.

Well, just curious.

Hello,

If an incremental backup scheme is necessary, then it is imperative to disable "circular logging" in Microsoft Exchange Server.

Thanks.

Thank you, I will disable the circular logging. Turns out to have more than one benefit to do that. :)
