Restoring Exchange 2010 using Backup Exec 2010

[AnnDroyd]

We're backing up our Exchange databases with Backup Exec. The backup completes fine, but we are unable to restore anything. Fortunately, I don't need to at the moment, but we could in future.

 

Errors include:

V-79-57344-898 - Backup Exec attempted to restore an Exchange database according to the job settings. The Exchange server was not found

V-79-57344-905 - The resource credentials for the restore job were unable to create a role assignment for ApplicationImpersonation.

V-79-57344-766 - Cannot log on to MAPI with the specified credentials. Review the resource credentials for the job, and then run the job again.

 

Has anyone experienced this kind of problem and found a solution? We're potentially going to have to replace our backup software to get around this.

Seems like an issue with the credentials, have you seen the backupexec documentation?

The backup and restore jobs are running with the domain administrator account, so that should be ok, shouldn't it?

You might just wanna check in the RBAC that the admin account has the required access.

 

it also needs a mailbox associated with it - the requirements in full are here; Enterprise Support - Symantec Corp. - Exchange 2010 restore fails due to Application Impersonation error.
