Extension Files subject to backup Database subject to backup
*.edb
data files (Exchange Server informa-
tion stores
Exchange Server 2010 inform-
ation stores
*.log Transaction log files
*.chk Checkpoint files
Databases are backed up and restored in units of volumes, so the configuration of objects of an
Exchange database has the following conditions:
• The files to be backed up must all be placed on a RAID volume defined as a pair.
• For Exchange 2003/2007 servers, deploy the storage group taking into consideration that backups
are conducted in units of volumes. If you deploy multiple storage groups in the same volume, you
need to back up or restore these storage groups as one group. When backing up or restoring a
storage group separately, deploy the storage group on a separate volume.
• When you place an Exchange database that is subject to backup on a volume, note the following:
• You cannot put the transaction log file (
*.log ) on a volume where data files are stored.
• Data files ( *.edb , *.stm ) and checkpoint files ( *.chk ) cannot be allocated to the same
volume.
• Do not use the following characters when setting a name for a storage group: = ; \ / “ ,
• Do not register the instances of multiple Exchange resources into a cluster group.
• If a mounted storage group or information store is renamed in Exchange Server 2003 or 2007,
all of the information stores under the corresponding storage group must be unmounted and then
remounted.
• If an information store is renamed in Exchange Server 2010, the information store must be unmoun-
ted and then remounted.
• Exchange Server 2010 recovery information stores cannot be backed up. Recovery information
store files and folders must be on a different file system from the information stores.
• To back up a storage group in Exchange Server 2003 or 2007, all of the information stores in
the storage group must be mounted.
