NB6 Problem with Public Folder Backup

[Marcus_Sch_]

Hi,

after Migration PFs to Exchange 2003 we have big problems to backup them.

I receive following error:

can't open object: Microsoft Exchange Public Folders:\Company Germany\SUN\IMS (BEDS 0xE000FE09: The directory is invalid.

After i renamed folder IMS the error is still the same.

Any ideas how to fix that? Is it possible to do a backup test with one single
folder ?

thanks,
Marcus

I think most people backing up Exchange opt to go with enterprise vault. I think it gets complicated with just netbackup.

If you use Netbackup then you need the exchange option.

here is how my infostore and mailbox policies are setup for my exchangeserver
