Larsa, Fastback doesn't work with 2008 yet, it's XP/2003 only (SP1 and up). Exchange 2007 works fine with 2003 64bit. Restoring public folders is no problem. I can restore data to another server also, as long as I have access on the domain & network.
Restored items from Exchange do come back as unread, also the forward/reply icons are gone after a restore.

Are you able to restore public folders with this client? With TDP for Exchange I'm not able to do it, and we will need it for awhile before we can leave public folders behind. Can you restore the data to another server in some way? /Larsa -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stefan Folkerts Sent: den 1 december 2008 08:08 To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] anyone currently using or evaluating TSM FastBack Yep, I am running it as a second backup tool next to Tivoli for Demo's (of Fastback) and to get the data outside every night without having to be or pass by the office. It's a nice product, it does what it say's it does, the interface could use some tuning, some icons are really small and the tiniest differences inside of these icons can indicate certain error states or activities that are currently running....a little fiddly but that all. It's really simple to get going and configure, within minutes it's all done, the client is just a dream to configure, all you do is point it to the server and that's it! :) All configuration is done on the server but even that is very limited, you can't exclude data, you either backup the partition/disk or you don't, the policies are extremely simplistic but are all you need for what the product does. It just works, makes me wonder why all software can't be this simple and just work. Exchange single item restore support runs thru Outlook, that's a little odd at first but it works nicely and IBM has made that interface better it seems going from 5.5.0.0 to 5.5.1.0. I am pleased with the product except for one issue...we need Windows 2008 support and we need it fast! :) Any questions about fastback, just post it here, I will try to answer them as good as I can.

List is USD1030.90 for 10 PVU of the basic product with exchange brick-level and bare-metal. It's the former "FilesX" product. We're torn between implementing it and waiting for the native brick-level exchange restores in TSM 6. Every Thursday this month at 15:30 UTC there's a demo. I understand this to be publically-available information, so I'll drop the information here. The next demo starts in half an hour. If this post causes a big flood and they have to limit participants, I imagine they might archive a demo and/or put on more of them.

Was this an in-house (IBM) software or was it bought and adapted for TSM use - kind of like the AvePoint software for MS SharePoint? I hadn't heard of it before, but figured someone out there may have gotten their fingers into it. thanks! lisa __________ Informatie van ESET NOD32 Antivirus, versie van database viruskenmerken 3452 (20080918) __________ Het bericht is gecontroleerd door ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.nod32.nl This communication is from a Carnegie company within the Carnegie Group.
