Some links for TSM/TDP: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tsminfo/v6/topic/com.ibm.itsm.mail.exc.doc/b_dp_mail_exc_guide_win.pdf
http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/tsminfo/v6r3/topic/com.ibm.itsm.mail.exc.msgs.doc/b_msgs_exc.pdf Also: makes sure your TSM B/A nodes has admin rights and also the nodes for TSM TDP need admin rights as well. On the server itself, you need to install the TSM client twice, once for the normal BA (backup/archive/restore) client service and once for the TSM TDP Exchange client. And the TSM TDP Exchange client service, on the Server.....needs local Admin rights for Exchange.

This has full DAG support including configuration wizards that will handle all of this for you "backup_archive_client_node" is the NODENAME of the BA Client (DSMAGENT) on the actual Exchange Server. I am guessing these will be "MB1" and "MB2" in your case. "data_protection_node" is the NODENAME of the DP/Exchange node. I am guessing these will be something like "MB1_EXC" and "MB2_EXC" in your case. You won't need one for the CAS server if you don't have any mailboxes on it. Again, I really recommend that you install and use Data Protection for Exchange 6.4 since it has full Exchange Server DAG support including the ability to manage all Exchange Server database backups under a common code (DAGNODE).
