    I'm trying to use Acronis Recovery for MS Exchange (build 176) to do a brick-level backup of our Exchange server (Exchange 2007 Enterprise on a Windows 2008 Enterprise Server). I am backing up to a drive on another Windows 2008 Enterprise Server system. When I do so, it backs up some of the mailboxes without any errors, but with some of the mailboxes I am getting the following error message:

    Failed to get value of type TULong64 from variant value TLong64("number").

    The number that appears varies with each error message.

    I am also getting the error message:

    Method ATTACH_BY_(2) is not supported.
    OR
    Method ATTACH_BY_(4) is not supported.

    Both of these errors appear multiple times in a row, but not necessarily together.

    Any ideas on what is going on and how to resolve this issue? I am guessing that the affected messages are being skipped and not backed up.

    Thanks!
    Tim

    Further information - the backup eventually fails after quite a while of running and I receive the following as an e-mail notification:

    Backup task [exchange] [Mailbox backup] [Friday, March 13, 2009 2:15:18 PM] on computer Exchange.mydomain.org completed with errors.Member invoke failed, Succeeded to create MyMailboxStore partial backup of storage group 'First Storage Group' (database(s): '{3}') from Microsoft Exchange Server 'EXCHANGE'., Stream writing error., There is insufficient disk space to complete operation

    However, I have plenty of space on my backup server on the volume it is backing up to (2.5 terabytes free) and plenty of space on the Exchange server itself (500GB+).

    Any ideas??

    What are you guys doing? An IS backup or straight Mailbox backup?

    Since you can restore individual mailboxes and emails from the IS backup the only real benefit to using a Mailbox backup is the granularity. As you can drill down into the mailboxes you want to backup and pick and choose what is to be backed up from those mailboxes.

    Brick-level (document level) backup is the most flexible type of backup. It offers advanced configuration options and performs backups at folder levels and quick restoring at separate messages level, allowing the most accurate level of restore. It also supports advanced filtering during backup.
    Use Mailbox backup and restore when you want the flexibility to back up individual mailboxes, public folders and use mail level filters.
    Also you can restore mailboxes and even separate e-mails from database backups.
