log_filename

—(Optional) The name of the log file name. By default, the log file is

this name is changed, the DTInfo utility will not be able to locate this file which could impede

assistance through Technical Support.

user moves or RUS and folder updates. If the

the overwrite database on restore flag, but the other work is performed also.

Directory

legacy

—(Optional) In certain environments that have been upgraded from Exchange 5.5, this

switch will prevent failover from causing issues with Active Directory due to clients (for example,

ESM) that expect an Exchange 5.5-based Active Directory syntax for a user’s home server

setting
