Hello!

I am trying to develope a simple application to backup a multiple
exchange information store database using the ESE Backup API described
in the esebcli2.dll.
The problem is that i can get the *.edb and the *.log files, but i
can't get the *.stm files! Also the HrESEBackupPrepare function returns
only 1 instance to backup, and that one is always the first one in
alphabetical order (i have 4 storage groups mounted!).

How can get all the files needed for the backup?
How do i get all the other instances(public and private)?

Can anyone help me?

Thanks,

Pierch

Hi.

We are developing a backup prototype using ESE Backup API. We are facing the
exactly same problem described by Pierch:
- we are getting only the first Information Store from the alphabetical
listening (the Information Store table contains exactly 1 element, however we
have configured 3 private stores - each store has at least one mailbox
containing at least some mails).

- we are unable to get .stm,... files

Does anyone have a hint on what is going on? Why the API doesn't function as
described on MSDN site - even the provided prototype lists only one
Information Store.

My configuration:
Win2003 Enterprise Server + Exchange2003sp1 << all is running on one machine
(so the machine is an AD, DNS and Exchange server).

Thanks and best regards,
Damir Dezeljin

I'm posting this again from my account to get a reply ;)

I guess the below problem is caused by not-enough permissions on the
Exchange store. What are the requirements to get all Information Stores and
other needed files for a backup by using ESE API (the problem is described in
previous post)?

Thanks and best regards,
