Hello Daniel and Chris,
Certainly the Active Directory must be *present* for an Exchange 2000
disaster recovery; that is where all of the user information is stored.
In most DR scenarios, only the Exchange Server is being recovered, and the
AD is still present on other Windows Servers in the intranet. This would
not involve *recovering* the AD -- at least not in the sense of recovering
it from backup media.
If *all* of the AD servers have been lost, then the AD would indeed need to
be recovered, via the SYSTEM_STATE saveset, outside the scope of the
Exchange Module.
Hope that this helps,
_Scott

>From our exp we have legato 6.03 on win2k and exchange 2000 with over 4000
mail boxes.
The performance from a backup timing is good and we use a BSM module to
backup exchange.
However as it stands and I can not confirm this because we haven't tested it
yet you have to restore exchange in its own right you have to also restore
the AD.
Now with use we have to restore the entire system due to the scale of
mailboxes we have so from a DR point of view that is a down side.
All in all performance is rather good better than our old exchange 5.5
setup.

We are looking at switching from lotus notes to exchange for our mail
servers. (yuck, I know.)
My question is more of a survey...
For the people that are using exchange and legato, what works well and what
doesn't? Do you have to use the BSM to back up the data?
Here, we have the lotus notes BSM, although, I would be lying if I said I
was happy with it.
Any thoughts from either side would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
