I'm using Backup Exec 2014 to backup Exchange 2013 DAG, I'd like to backup 2 individual Exchange Servers - Mailbox Role(Hyper-V Guest) so I can restore the Mailbox Role and the DAG.
My questions is: which backup type should I use in Backup Exec to backup individual Mailbox Role Exchange Server with is a Hyper-V guest.
If I backup the server from Hyper-V host, Backup Exec will backup all data, include the Information Store that I already backuped at another DAG backup, which is duplicated. However, the resotre process is easy, I just need to select the VM Guest in Hyper-V backup, no resuce disc requested.
If I backup the server as a computer, I can choose which folder to backup. Also, the Backup Exec Agent will exclude the Information Store in the backup process. However, I may need to insert the resuce disc to boot up VM guest first for DR.
