Snapshot Client configuration and licensing requirements for Exchange snapshot backups
To perform snapshot backups of restores of Exchange Server, you must meet the following configuration and licensing requirements:
Confirm that the type of snapshot you want to configure is supported for your Exchange environment. See the following compatibility list:
Configure the NetBackup Snapshot Client and verify that you meet the configuration requirements for the snapshot method you want to use.
If you use Veritas Storage Foundation for Windows (SFW), verify that you have the supported software level.
The following snapshot options or Exchange configurations require a separate Snapshot Client license:
Instant recovery
Off-host backups
Backups using a hardware provider
A Snapshot Client license is not required for any Exchange snapshot backups that use the Microsoft default provider or SFW.
Additional installation requirements apply for Instant Recovery and off-host backups.
If you want to restore individual items from database backups (granular recovery), additional installation requirements apply and other configuration is necessary.
See Configuring an Exchange backup that uses Granular Recovery Technology (GRT) (non-VMware backups).
