Stan,
I never thought of creating an individual group per letter. You must
have more people than me.
I run a separate IS backup and a separate PF backup as well as the
file
system backup.
I have three groups for my Exchange server backups; each of which is
scheduled so its backup does not overlap with the others. One group
includes just the IS and PF stuff. The other group contains MB:/A*,
MB:/B*, and so on for 36 different save sets. I do not have a
separate group for each "MB:/x" I have all 36 specified in the
savesets field in a single client entry. The third group is just the
regular file system backup.
I am fairly sure this should work out well. Our Exchange server is
only a couple of months old and it has not been fully deployed yet;
its intended only for my University's senior excecutives, so I doubt
it will ever hold more than a few hundred mailboxes. We are in the
process of setting up a DR server for this thing, but until that's
done, I will not be able to check the integrity of the IS backups. I
have done quite a few MB recovers to make sure those work, and they
seem okay.
Like you, doing Exchange backups is a fairly new thing for me. I had
a lot of help from people on this list, Cambridge Computer, and EMC's
tech support to get this up and running in a Windows cluster
environment.
