Skip this task if configuring anExchange Server 2003 server.Starting with Exchange Server 2007, neither the Messaging API (MAPI) clientlibraries nor CDO 1.2.1 are provided as a part of the base Exchange Server 2007product installation. As a result, you must manually download and install thesecomponents in order to use the MAPI-based Exchange Message Plug-in.Download and Install MAPI Client Libraries and CDO 1.2.1version 6.5.8153.0 or later as a single download from Microsoft.com at thefollowing location:http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=E17E7F31-079A-43A9-BFF2-0A110307611E&displaylang=enCreate “AvamarBackupUser” user account and mailbox thatuses static profile (64-bit)This section contains steps that must be performed on one node in the cluster,followed by steps that must be performed on all nodes in the cluster.IMPORTANT: A unique user name is required for eachExchange Server. If you are backing up more than oneExchange server within an Active Directory forest, you mustuse a different Windows user account for each Exchangeserver. This is because each user defined in Active Directorystores an Exchange mailbox as an attribute. It is thereforenot possible for Avamar to use one user account to back upmore than one Exchange server. This limitation applies tothe Exchange Message Plug-in only.EMC AVAMAR 6.0 FOR EXCHANGE GUIDE 26
