For instance,Back Up Your Database With An Exchange Backup Program Articles the Exchange 2000 required a person to get a separate recovery server to recover a single item or mailbox from your backed up database. This was complicated at times, as it became a hindrance and it was extra money. The 2003 Exchange backup program added its own separate storage system that allowed you to get to the database. All you had to do was access it through the Exmerge tool in the Exchange program. The other thing you could do was choose the database you wanted backed up. Then you would use the Exmerge tool to transfer any items back onto the online database, without going offline. It was easy to back everything up onto a tape drive or a disk drive, which are easy to find in a variety of forms and shapes. If you are a small or medium business, you should have at least one drive on your server. One of these should contain the Exchange backup program, and every day you will make sure a cassette is put into the tape and backing up all of your information. The other thing you need to be aware of is the tapes will have to be recycled, especially if you use it every day and every week. One suggestion is to place the backup copy in your safe with the week's information. A larger business will normally use a central backup system. Either way, this system allows you to keep your information updated and safe.
