How to Protect Different Parts of Your Exchange Server Organization

The following CA ARCserve Backup agents and options can be used to protect different parts of your Exchange Server organization:

CA ARCserve Backup Agent for Microsoft Exchange Server--Includes Database Level and Document Level backup and restore. Database Level backup and restore protects the Exchange Server database and logs. Document Level backup and restore, which is only available with this agent, eases and expedites many administrative tasks and maximizes flexibility by offering the most granular level of restore.
CA ARCserve Backup Client Agent for Windows--Protects files and system state, including Active Directory. It is important to protect Active Directory when using Microsoft Exchange Server because it stores mailbox and user information. CA ARCserve Backup Client Agent for Windows also protects your domain controllers, which are equally as important to protect as your Exchange Server.
CA ARCserve Backup Disaster Recovery Option--In the event of a disaster, the CA ARCserve Backup Disaster Recovery Option recovers the machine to the last full backup state.

Be aware of the following:

You do not need to install an email client on the Exchange server that you are protecting. For example, Microsoft Outlook.
You do not need to install the CA ARCserve Backup Agent for Open Files on the Exchange server that you are protecting. The Agent for Open Files is beneficial when you want to protect files that are open or in use by active applications. Because the CA ARCserve Backup Agent for Microsoft Exchange Server is an application-specific agent, dedicated to protecting Microsoft Exchange Servers, it offers a complete solution that encompasses all the features offered by the Agent for Open Files.
