SBS 2k8 Backup doesn't flush Exchange-Logs

  • 772

We're using the Small Business Server Backup that comes with SBS 2008 to backup all drives to an iomega iSCSI-Target. The Backup works fine and everything is shown as successfully backed up.

But the exchange-logs in C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\Mailbox\First Storage Group and C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\Mailbox\Second Storage Group aren't flushed.

What could cause this behaviour?

backup exchange-2007 windows-sbs-2008

    When you look at the backup configuration, is the box to backup the Exchange Information Store checked, or are you only backing up the drives?

  2. Here is a link that can do what you need on Win2k8 R2, I know you are referring to SBS however not sure how many features are included for 'Window Server Backup' within SBS.

    In summary: Windows server backup->Backup schedule->Modify Backup->Custom->Add items + Advanced Settings=>Vss Settings=>VSS FULL BACKUP->Backup Time->Destination Type->Keep or Change Backup Destination->Finish [Verify that in advance option you see VSS full backup]
