Hi James, They are not the same product, but have some similar functions. Fastback for Exchange is for performing IMR (mailbox-level and item-level restore) from Exchange files (.EDB and .LOG). Data Protection for Exchange has the ability to perform database-level backup and restores, and IMR res

Hi Leif, The .ctl and .dat files are underneath a "group leader" object. The management class of the group leader is what defines the policy for all children objects. Also keep in mind that when you rebind the MC, it will change the policy, but will not change the copy destination of objects alrea

Hi Steve, Domino and Exchange are different, so don't try to manage their backups in exactly the same way. You can certainly have different management classes for your FULL (database and logs) backups vs. your INCREMENTAL (logs only) backups. INCREMENTAL backups will inactivate when a new FULL ba
