Agent for Enterprise Vault

Backup strategy - choosing daily vs. weekly full, daily incrementals, etc.
For a straightforward EV 10 installation with about 10 TB of only File System Archiving data, using the NetBackup agent for EV to backup vault stores, indexes, etc, how do I choose a backup strategy? I've searched this forum, read http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH172279and DOC4933 and the article: https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/articles/enterprise-vault-backups-best-practiceand understand the need for and different sources of EV data needingbackups, but I cannot find any good advice on trade-offs between daily fulls, weekly fulls, daily incrementals, etc. Do the trade-offs between various backup strategies (RTO, RPO) that we consider for lets say ordinary file system backups apply equally as much to the EV backups, or is there an advantage - for example - of daily fulls over and above the shorter RTO you generally get with daily full backups (not having to apply daily incrementals to get latest)? I have seen that closed vault stores (and indexes?) should be backed up less frequenly - perhaps a weekly full only - so my question is more around EV 'non-closed' stores/indexes/etc. I realize this may be a complex subject - perhaps we could start with a simple strategy and poke holes in it: Weekly fulls of all EV data Daily differential incremental (NetBackup term for ordinary incremental of changes since yesterday's backup) of active data and SQL databases. Retain perhaps a month's work of weeklies and then retain monthlies until tape copies are made. Thanks.

Enterprise Vault HTTP-only Add-In tab disappears - Outlook 2010
The tab on Outlook 2010 disappears when the user reboots at the end of the day and returns in the morning. Running a repair or re-installing almost always restore the tab, but this problem is consistent with this user (maybe others). Raised the logging level to 3 and below is what I think is the fail log. Any help is greatly appreciated. 23/02/2012 12:30:36.424[3288][H]: Log file created (level 3). 23/02/2012 12:30:36.424[3288][L]: FUIHelper::FUIHelper: 0x0 23/02/2012 12:30:36.426[3288][L]: ~FUIHelper::FUIHelper: 0x0 23/02/2012 12:30:36.426[3288][L]: CDesktopUI::CDesktopUI 23/02/2012 12:30:36.427[3288][L]: ~CDesktopUI::CDesktopUI 23/02/2012 12:30:36.428[3288][L]: CDesktopUI::OnConnection: 0x0 23/02/2012 12:30:36.431[3288][L]: CDesktop::FinalConstruct: 0x0 23/02/2012 12:30:36.431[3288][L]: DesktopCommonConfig::LogonToMAPI: 0x0 23/02/2012 12:30:36.441[3288][L]: ~DesktopCommonConfig::LogonToMAPI: 0x80040111 23/02/2012 12:30:36.442[3288][M]: Connections now on Desktop object: 1 23/02/2012 12:30:36.443[3288][L]: ~CDesktop::FinalConstruct: 0x80040111 23/02/2012 12:30:36.443[3288][L]: CDesktop::FinalRelease 23/02/2012 12:30:36.443[3288][M]: Connections left on Desktop object: 0 23/02/2012 12:30:36.444[3288][L]: DesktopCommonConfig::ReleaseStatics: 0x0 23/02/2012 12:30:36.445[3288][L]: ~DesktopCommonConfig::ReleaseStatics: 0x0 23/02/2012 12:30:36.445[3288][M]: Disconnecting...Clearing MAPI 23/02/2012 12:30:36.446[3288][L]: DesktopCommonConfig::LogOffMAPI: 0x0 23/02/2012 12:30:36.446[3288][L]: ~DesktopCommonConfig::LogOffMAPI: 0x0 23/02/2012 12:30:36.447[3288][M]: Released Session 23/02/2012 12:30:36.447[3288][M]: Closing event handles 23/02/2012 12:30:36.447[3288][L]: DesktopCommonConfig::CloseDown: 0x0 23/02/2012 12:30:36.448[3288][L]: ~DesktopCommonConfig::CloseDown: 0x0 23/02/2012 12:30:36.448[3288][M]: ...Disconnected 23/02/2012 12:30:36.449[3288][L]: ~CDesktop::FinalRelease 23/02/2012 12:30:36.449[3288][H]: A COM error exception has been caught: 80040111 23/02/2012 12:30:36.450[3288][L]: ~CDesktopUI::OnConnection: 0x80040111

Critical Status messages after Backup Exec differential backups
Using EV agent for BE 2010 R3, we do weekly Full backups and daily Differentials. All backups complete succesfully. A couple of days after the full backup, we get the following warningsin the EV10 console. It is more than 2 days since backup or replication was detected for one or more open partitions. Open partitions with unsecured items scanned: 1 Total open partitions: 1 List of partitions: VaultStore 1 Ptn1 The fingerprint database 'EVVSGVaultStore1_1_1' transaction log for Vault Store Group 'Vault Store 1' has not been backed up for 3 days. The information in this database is at risk until the database has been backed up. The SQL database transaction log for Vault Store 'VaultStore 1' has not been backed up for 3 days. The information in this database is at risk until the database has been backed up. The weekly Full backup crears these warnings. According to http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=HOWTO23612, diff backups should a fullbackup of the the databases, soI believethese messages should not appear. Anyone come across the same, or know how to stop the warnings appearing?

Invalid Journal Report Exchange 2003/2010 Mixed Environment
We recently upgraded to Exchange 2010 and currently running a 2003/2010 Mixed Environment. We are also running Enterprise Vault 9.0 with Journaling. I have the Exchange 2010 Server set to send Journal Reports to the Journal Mailbox which resides on the 2003 Server. Everything is running smoothly, however about half of the e-mails that originate on mailboxes that are located on the 2010 server, don't get journaled properly. The item ends up in a folder in Outlook called 'Invalid Journal Reports'. The e-mails have the paperclip icon next to them like there is an attachment, however there is no message attached to it. Anybody have ideas?

Vault recover
Un utilisateur a été supprimé, il y a quelques mois (dans Enterprise Vault 8.0 SP4), sous "Archives", dans "Exchange Mailbox" et il n'y a eu aucune sauvegarde de faite, pour le serveur Exchange (via NetBackup), pendant la période du 01.01.2011 au 24.02.2011 . Lorsque nous avons rajouté sa mailbox, à nouveau, dans Enterprise Vault, nous avons pu récupéré tous les mails archivés, avant 2011 et après le 24.02.2011, mais tout ce qui a été archivé, pendant la période sus-mentionnée, est perdu ou du moins, n'est plus accessible. Comment faire, pour pouvoir récupérer tous les mails, stockés dans "Enterprise Vault", puisqu'il doivent forcémenet être encore quelque part, sur le serveur, je suppose?
