We have an Exchange 2010 Server where the Small Business Edition of Backup Exec 2012 is installed on a Windows 2008 R2 Standard Server. It (now) has (5) local USB drives attached for all backups. We also have a separate Windows 2008 Standard Server on the same LAN being used as a File Server. It has the Backup Exec Agent Utility for Windows installed. Both Servers ar appearing separately on the Backup and Restore tab under Serves.
What I want to do is be able to create a Full Backup Job for each day of the week on each respective USB drive. I would like it to include only the Microsoft Information Store on the local Exchange Server and the D: data drive on the networked File Server (for now, not to include Disaster Recovery options). I have limited space on the USB Drives and they won't fit the contents of both servers. They're virtual VMware Guests and the machine's files are backed up using another method. I need to be able to restore just the data -- not the entire server.
Here's the problem: In addition to the local Server, I believe we used to be able to select and include networked Servers in the same Backup Job but it now appears we can't? If I try and create a Job from the Exchange Sever details screen, I can't select drives on the File Server and vica versa. I even tried using Groups and creating a new Backup Job under Group All Servers. Yes, it includes both servers but the source options are combined under the Entire System checklist. I can't just check Microsoft Information Store on one and the D: drive on the other server.
Do I have to create two Backup Jobs for each day and each USB Drive -- one for each server -- and try to schedule them back to back manually?
