Backup Windows Exchange Cluster

[aspitze]

Hi All,

I backup a Windows Exchange cluster. The backup of “public folder” works fine, however with the “Private mailboxes” get I the following error message:

* hsyw2ex01:MSEXCH:MB D:\rt_2002_1Q\nsr\db_apps\aime\svmain.c(1133): process_mb_backup() = 0x8007203e

Server: NetWorker 6.1.1.Build.238 Power/95 (AIX 4.3.3 ML10)
Client: 6.1.1.Build.238 (windows 2000 Cluster + Exchange 2000 Cluster)
Module: 3.1 (newest patches)

savecommand:
savegrp -l full -D5 "HSY_Exchange"

Possibly someone an idea?

Thanks in advance.

The manual backup of the mailbox work fine?

Is your Windows system using a Compaq Gigabit card?

Can you upgrade to NetWorker 6.1.3?

(Connection reset by peer) might suggest that the session was lost. I have seen nic cards set to Media Type auto-select that periodically disconnect and re-connect while they sense the speed of the line. Manually set the Nic and the switch port to the nic's highest speed and disable auto negotiation of speed.

Could also be a problem with the software.

Suggest upgrading your backup server, storage nodes, and client to NetWorker V6.1.3

However, I would still suspect something related to the network.
