Solved!
Go to Solution- i forgot to mention that the exchange module is 5.0
i know 4.1 does not support incremental backups of the mail boxes, but in module 5.0 there is an item level and a folder level backups. the folder level needs to be full for the mail boxes, but what about the item level, could it be done incrementaly and be scheduled or manually. - it is mentioned in the document that:
Mailboxes and public folders can be backed up at both level Full,
and level Incremental. Level Incremental backups decrease the
time required for backup operations.
but what confuses me is this sentence:
Incremental mailbox backups can only be used in conjunction with item level
index granularity.
is it the same, just insert the saveset MSEXCH:MB and schedule it. does this do the job because there is the folder level that should be full, and there is the item level that could be incremental. so, my question is if the saveset was MSEXCH:MB, and the schedule was incremental, would it take it as a folder level or an item level in order to perform the right backup - Please refer to documentation - it is all described in there. Here is one part:
When folder level index granularity is selected, all incremental mailbox backups are promoted to full backups. Incremental mailbox backups can only be used in conjunction with item level index granularity.

I hope this clears. See backup comman guide in docs and pay attention to what -G option does.
