RMExch backup
SYNTAX
RMExch backup -s <ExchangeServer> -g <storagegroup> [-t <Timestamp>]
[-p <policyName>] [-remove] [-d <fullScheduleName>] [-m <masterServer>]
[-defer|-nc] [-mp <“mountpoint”>] [-noemail] [-dl DataListName] [-domain
<DomainName>]
DESCRIPTION
The RMExch backup command backs up a virtual copy to media, or creates a virtual copy and
backs up to media (also known as a quick backup). For the latter case, no timestamp is needed.
PARAMETERS
The following options are supported:
•
-s <ExchangeServer> - The name of the Exchange server to which the storage group
belongs.
•
-g <Storage_group> - The name of the storage group to which the timestamp belongs.
•
–t <Timestamp> - Optional. The timestamp of the virtual copy to back up. Use if the virtual
copy has already been created. Do not use to create a virtual copy and then perform a backup.
•
–p <policyName> - Symantec NetBackup policy name. Only valid if Symantec NetBackup
software is in use.
•
-remove - Optional. Used with quick backups. Specify this option to remove the virtual copy
after a quick backup.
◦ If the policy is a numeric-based policy, the -remove option removes both the newly
created virtual copy and the oldest virtual copy.
NOTE: HP does not recommend using the -remove option with the RMExch backup
command on virtual copies that use a numeric-based policy. If you want to automatically
delete the oldest virtual copy, configure the policy to remove the oldest virtual copy. For
more information, see the RMExch policy command.
◦ If the policy specifies an expiration time or a retention time or both, the -remove option
overrides the policy and removes the virtual copy immediately.
If the -remove option is not specified, by default the virtual copy is retained.
•
–d <fullScheduleName> - Name of Symantec NetBackup backup schedule. Only valid
if Symantec NetBackup software is in use.
•
–m <masterServer> - Name of the Symantec NetBackup master server. Only valid if
Symantec NetBackup software is in use.
•
-defer - Optional. Specify this option to defer the Exchange log truncation after the successful
backup is confirmed in automatic creation. This option defers log truncation until backup
completion, keeping the Exchange writer in the "waiting for completion" state during that
period. This option cannot be used with the -t option.
•
-nc - Optional. Skips the integrity check (not recommended). This option cannot be used
with the -t or -defer options.
