Exchange 2019 Backup
I have Exchange 2019 installed on Windows Core 2019. I would like to know what the best practice is for backing up the server? I'm looking for a disaster recovery solution and not a granular restore. I'm currently using wbadmin and still learning how to use it.
I tried this: wbadmin enable backup -addtarget:e: -allcritical -VSSfull -schedule:21:00 -quite
and it ran ok the first night but when I put the next disk in the following day, it didn't run. Although it wasn't a newly formatted disk...
So basically I have these questions:
1.) How to I run wbadmin using multiple disks on a schedule? (using 5 disks M-F)
2.) Is there a 3rd party software that is superior for what I'm wanting to achieve?
3.) Can you install 3rd Party Backup Software on Core 2019? (My first time using Core)
Also if your answering question #1 please don't past a link to MS Web Docs on wbadmin. I have already scoured those pages and unless you can find a specific page that explains what I'm doing wrong with scheduling the backup then I have already covered that text. Not trying to be snarky just trying to not to waist your time.
Thanks!

No, it is not virtualized.
You can protect physical server as well using Veeam.

How to I run wbadmin using multiple disks on a schedule?
if they are different drive letters, adjust your command line for each letter and add to task scheduler
Is there a 3rd party software that is superior for what I'm wanting to achieve?
veeam can do that and more
Can you install 3rd Party Backup Software on Core 2019? (My first time using Core)
depends...some support server core; others not. should check the system requirements
if you decide to go the veeam route, you can install the agent remotely from the veeam server; the agent is supported only that way (remotely deployed from the veeam server)

I don't find an expensive backup solution (Veam) superior to what "I'm" trying to achieve.
you never mentioned cost
you are using windows backup and said from the start you want a 'disaster recovery solution' and windows backup is not exactly the first thing that comes to mind
looking for a DR solution is an entire discussion in itself
You don't get points just for participating.
that wasn't the point of the objection
you got impatient, didn't respond to the suggestions given and chose not to ask for more clarification

If yes I will take backup using Veeam BR.
Which will do far better than WBAdmini
