Yes, and in the event of systems failure you can just re-place the database files &nbsp;(if they're fairly recent)... or import them as a recovery storage group and work on a mailbox level

Hi all,<br />
<br />
We dont currently have the right software to backup our exchange (2000). I know i can use ntbackup, but its a little flakey, is it possible to simply make a copy of the database files priv/pub 1 and place these on another hard disk. Would i be able to restore these files easy if this is possible?<br />
<br />
<br />
Many thanks<br />
<br />

exchange backup

The term "Backup" means the methods and processes involved to copy computer data (system data as well as application data) to media other than the ones where the data originally live (disk, tape, optical, cloud). "Restore" in turn means the methods and processes involved in data recovery, i. e., bringing back copied computer data to their original location. Backup/Restore primarily serves as a means of protection against data loss, be it due to disaster, corruption or sabotage. It can also be used for recovering data from an earlier point in time and even for cloning machines or applications. There is a wide variety of backup/restore software available, from expensive commercial products to free or open source tools.

Storage Software

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.
