Hello,
- Are you able to successfully backup Exchange Information Store?
- Ensure that Backup Exec service account's (BESA) mailbox must be unique to the organization. No other mailbox can share the first 5 characters in common with this mailbox in the entire organization. This can be tested by composing a new mail message and then in 'To:' field type the first 5 characters of the mailbox display name, then press , this should resolve the name, if a menu pops up, then there are multiple accounts which share these first 5 characters. The matching names should be changed or the BESA mailbox name should be changed to something unique.
- The Backup Exec service account must have its own mailbox that has been tested with Outlook prior to configuring mailbox backups. If the mailbox has not had mail traffic, it can be flagged as "Inactive" by Exchange. This can be corrected by simply sending this account mail.
- When configuring mailbox backups, always log on as the Backup Exec service account.
- Create an account in Backup Exec under Network | Logon Accounts that contains the Exchange mailbox name as the name and has domain admin password.
- If there are multiple message stores on this server, make sure the Backup Exec mailbox is located in the last or most recently added message store.
- Enable restrict anonymous on Media server as well as the remote server. Refer the following technote.
