Post Exchange Mailbox Backups 
I am running Simpana version 8 and my email backups take forever. I have a windows 2003 Eachange Server running Exchange 2003. I have approximately 40 GB of data being backed up daily to tape. I split them up in to 4 groups that run at the same time so it will back up quicker, but they still take anywhere from 12 to 20 hours before they all are finished. Any suggestions on how to speed up the backup process? Thank you.

Do you have DDO licensing?  Generally I run my mailbox backups to disk first, with synthetic fulls, then aux copy off to tape.

Yes, I have DDO licensing. Will the backups run quicker if I set up aux copy?

Thank you,

Generally, yes, without knowing the rest of your infrastructure too well Smile

Auxiliary Copies don't affect backup job performance by the way - they're simply an adminstrative job that shifts data between storage tiers, in this case, you'd intend on using it to shift data from secondary storage [magnetic library] to the tape copy.


From an architecture point of view, what I am suggesting is to shift your Mailbox backups from D2T (Direct to tape) to D2D2T / Disk-to-disk-to-tape.


You will need sufficient disk space to hold at least 1 week's worth of mailbox backups, to ensure that when you run a Synthetic Full [SYN FULL] backup, that it doesn't need to feed from tape to complete the SYN FULL.

Can you tell us about your infrastructure? Are the Exchange servers their own media agents? What type of tape drives, etc...
