Exchange 2013 CCR native protection or Netbackup
I'm not an exchange admin so i apoligize for any lingo missteps, etc.. My company is doing Exchange 2013 CCR/DAG with a production and a DR site. Currently we are backing up passive copies of exchange@ our DR site with Netbackup. Doing a non GRT backup with daily DIFF and weekly FULL approach, with 90 days retention, all on disk, no tape out. We have dialed up retention for the users to 5GB per mailbox, and have 14 days of recovery enabled natively in Exchange. Most of our end user driven restores are handled without ever needing to go to netbackup. We are considering extending the native recovery in Exchange to 45 or maybe 90 days with the end game of not backing up Exchange anymore. I'm curious if any others have moved away or are considering moving away from backing up exchange? thanks
