transaction logs should a restore be needed or should I work to convince them
to start backing up / replicating those files also? Thank you!

First off, doubletake doesn't work like that/
Second, the use of Doubletake is not a substitute for not backing the
box up properly. You should use an Exchange aware backup application
(ntbackup.exe on the Exchange server is good and free). This wil back
the logs and stores up, and then purge the logs out. |
