Windows server backup util when backing up Exchange 2010 sp1

We have some issues without 3rd party backup app. so now we have reverted to good old windows backup. But now we are getting a weird error when trying to back up the store:

The application will not be available for recovery from this backup. The consistency check failed for the component Microsoft Exchange Server\Microsoft Information Store\%servername%\%some funny code/numbers%

Is this backup we have made invalid? How can I find out what the issues are with exchange to that we can get a valid backup made and get the logs truncated. Please advise

You need to perform full backup again and test
Follow the steps in: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd876851.aspx

You need to change the registry keys as given in the link above.
and enable the circular logging on databases

hi, we use DAG's and DAG's and circular logging dont like eachother.

So what you are saying is that i should drop the DAG and only run on one 'node'. then run the backup?
