We are using TBMR 6.2.2, TDP for Mail 5.3.1 and TSM Client 6.1.3 to backup Windows 2003 cluster with SAN based Exchage 2007 databases. Each cluster node is dedicated TSM Server protected by TBMR/TSM and another deicated TSM node is used for Echange database resource group with online backups by using TDP for Mail and TSM Client (without TBMR). Configuration a little bit complicated, but we are protecting everything.

Cristie's CBMR says it treats Exchange data as plain files with nothing to handle the internal structure of Exchange. Not sure about Cristie's TBMR. (my IBM re-seller tells me he talked to Cristie and they told him that their TBMR is IBM Fastback BMR. That sounds strange. Did IBM buy them?) I haven't found anyone yet at IBM who can tell me how Fastback for Bare Metal Restore works with Exchange. Acronis...I know nothing about. I'd love something that would work with my TSM environment. Can anyone suggest anything? Thanks.
