But as I know databases cant be backed up with open-files agents, databases must maintain consistency. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
natew 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2005 Hi The Exchange agent uses Microsoft APIs to back up the databases. That allows us to get a snapshot of the database at one point in time even while users are accessing the databases. Thanks nate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
