Backing Up the Exchange Server 2003 Databases That Are Stored on Shared Disk Resources

 

Exchange 2003 database files and transaction log files are stored on one or more of a server cluster's shared disk resources. One instance of the MSExchangeIS service runs per node. Each instance supports multiple storage groups. Each Exchange Virtual Server (EVS) in the cluster that uses these resources has its own set of databases and log files. Back up Exchange databases in your Exchange server clusters by using a method that is similar to that for backing up a stand-alone Exchange server.
