Exchange 2007 CCR backup issue

[Kenneth_Hansen]

Hi,

Then it was over to problem number two..
I've trying to backup a Exchange 2007 CCR cluster on windows 2008
Netbackup 6.5.5 Unix master on Solaris 10
Netbackup client installed on exchange nodes 1 and 2 - 6.5.5
On each node, under backup - restore and archive added both nodes an virtual cluster name to client list.


 Added virtual cluster node name to client under policy.
Client properties - added mailbox for message level backup an restore. Choose backup the passive copy only.

Registry key - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\MSExchangeIS\ParametersSystem\Enable Remote Streaming Backup to 1 is set.

Still backup execute on the active node in the CCR cluster..

HELP!! What am I missing??

the standard client backup license cannot be used to backup the passive node. I believe you need the  enterprise/advanced client license to do what you need.

I've been testing and reading a bit on exchange CCR backup method.
My first mistake was not enabling VVS snapshot in exchange policy.
Exchange extension and advanced client license was installed.
