We are working on creating a backup strategy for our CCR environment. From the documentation it looks like we can use VSS to snapshot the passive node. We were wondering if it is possible to perform Exchange aware streaming backups from the passive node?
No; the passive copy supports only Exchange-aware VSS-based backups. Streaming backups must be taken from the active copy. -- Regards, Scott Schnoll Microsoft Corporation This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
