Backing up Exchange 2010

SonicWALL CDP 6.0 Administrator’s Guide
Note
The SonicWALL CDP appliance must be licensed for server applications. On the
SonicWALL CDP 110 or 210 platforms, this feature requires the purchase of a Microsoft
Application Server Agent License upgrade. This license allows you to back up any
application that is installed on your server, such as Exchange, SQL, Active Directory,
SharePoint, or another supported application.
The SonicWALL CDP Microsoft Exchange InfoStore Backup and Restore feature includes the
following capabilities:
•
Ability to set and manage the backup schedule
•
Optional automatic backup to an offsite location
•
Retention of multiple backup versions
How Does InfoStore Backup and Restore Work?
The SonicWALL CDP Microsoft Exchange InfoStore Backup and Restore feature is
implemented as a server application that is automatically discovered by the SonicWALL CDP
Agent User Interface. To get started using the feature, select the
Policies
tab and then select
Applications
in the left pane of the Agent User Interface. To backup Microsoft Exchange
databases, you must configure an application object, a schedule, and a backup task that
includes both the application object and the schedule.
Note
Exchange 2010 InfoStore does not use storage groups, as are used with Exchange 2007/
2003 InfoStore, but provides direct access to the databases for backup and restore.
The InfoStore application allows you to add or remove individual Microsoft Exchange databases
for backup, set backup schedules, restore specific backups of the Exchange server, and
configure offsite backup. You can view log entries in the SonicWALL CDP Agent User Interface
on the
Status
tab to verify that backups are successful.
For information about supported servers and versions of Exchange, see the
“Supported
Platforms and Deployment Requirements” section on page 21
.
Adding an InfoStore Application Object
To backup InfoStore databases, you must configure an application object, a schedule, and a
backup task that includes both the application object and the schedule. This section describes
how to create the application object.
To create an application object for Microsoft Exchange InfoStore backup, perform the following
steps:
Step 1
In the SonicWALL CDP Agent User Interface, click the
Policies
tab.
Step 2
In the left pane, click
Applications
.
