I'm assuming this is exchange 2003. A couple of things.
Check your dsierror.log in the tdpexchange directory for any additional information. Is this a cluster environment ? Verify that your opt file in the tdpexchange directory has the following: NOdename "nodename TSM server has registered" TCPServeraddress "TCP server address" CLUSTERnode "yes or no" COMPRESSIon Off PASSWORDAccess Generate COMMMethod TCPip TCPPort 1500 TCPWindowsize 63 TCPBuffSize 32 SCHEDMODE Polling INCLUDE * exchange_st I also launch mine from a cmd file because we are in a cluster environment. tdpexc /tsmoptfile="C:\program files\tivoli\tsm\tdpexchange\dsm.opt" /excserver="exchange instance name" -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Nicolas Muurmans Sent: Wednesday, November 09, 2005 8:06 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: TDP for Exchange problem I have a problem with my TDP for exchange installation. When i start the TDP agent i get this error message: ACN5237E Unable to communicate with the Microsoft Exchange Server. The Exchange serve IS installed and is working fine. I first thought that it was an API error in the Exchange server, but when i use NTbackup it manages to back up the exchange server just fine. So i think the problem is with the TDP agent. I would be grateful for any thoughts on this? Many Thanks Nicolas Muurmans
