Hi list, I have the following scenario and I am having a hard time making TDP for Exchange work....
1- Microsoft Exchange 2007 binaries installed in one machine, as afront end machine. 2- Microsoft Exchange 2007 Database Agents installed on 2 other machines running MCSC (Microsoft Cluster Server). 3- Microsoft Exchange 2007 Databases exists on this 2 MCSC nodes. I´ve installed TDP for Exch on both nodes and I am getting the error below when verifying my installation: C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\TDPExchange>tdpexcc query exchange IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Mail: Data Protection for Microsoft Exchange Server Version 5, Release 5, Level 1.0 (C) Copyright IBM Corporation 1998, 2008. All rights reserved. ACN5051I The configuration file cannot be found, using default settings. ACN5057I The C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\TDPExchange\tdpexc.log log file has been pruned successfully. Querying Exchange Server to gather storage group information, please wait... ACN5237E Unable to communicate with the Microsoft Exchange Server. On the dsm.opt file, the NODENAME parameter is pointing to the virtual server name on the MSCS, as recommended by the TDP for Exchange Installation Guide... I did TDP for Exchange installations in MSCS environments before, with Exchange 2003....and everything was fine. This 2007 scenario is different though....it uses a 3rd machine, like a frontend.....only the Exchange Databases are on the cluster nodes.... ________________________________ I´ve tried installing the TDP on the frontend machine also, which is a standalone machine and it is where the Exchange Server binaries are installed....and I got the following error: C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\TDPExchange>tdpexcc query exchange IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Mail: Data Protection for Microsoft Exchange Server Version 5, Release 5, Level 1.0 (C) Copyright IBM Corporation 1998, 2008.
