SBS2011 + Exchange

Thread needs solution

Hi there,

I would like to order "Acronis® Backup & Recovery™ 11 Server for Windows" for our SBS2011 server.
Is it possible to backup and restore the Exchange database? Or do I need another product like "Acronis Recovery for Microsoft Exchange SBS (English)"?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Roelof Sybren van Ijken.

SBS2011 includes echange 2010 and Acronis Recovery for Microsoft Exchange is not compatible with it. It's possible to backup exchange database with Backup & Recovery 11 , but there is no possiblility of granular restore and it can't truncate transaction logs.

That's a pity. You don't have any software that is capable of backuping and restoring an Exchange 2010 database?
It's not only the Exchange DB, but the whole server that needs to be backupped.

Thanks for your reply!

Hi Roelof Sybren,
You can join the Beta program of Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5. It does exactly what you need and supports Exchange 2010.
Beta link: http://www.acronis.com/backup-recovery/beta/

Thanks, I will do that.
Just to be sure: there can't go something wrong when installing this beta? It doesn't change anything to the current configuration of the SBS-server of services? I don't want the server to crash or anything.

Thanks. Sorry for asking this, but I went to a lot of trouble during the migration, so I don't want anything to go wrong.

As most software Betas, it cannot be recommended for using on a production server. However, if you have a test environment or have an opportunity to clone the production environment for the test purposes, that would be a great configuration to try this build.

Strange, after installation i only get an uninstall option in the start menu. Which file do I need to start?
