Document Level Views in the Backup Manager

Depending on your Exchange Server version, Microsoft Exchange Server – Document Level appears in the Backup Manager under the following objects:

For Exchange Server 2003 systems, you can expand the Document Level object to view it storage groups. Each server can include up to five storage groups. For Exchange Server 2007 systems, each server can include up to 50 storage groups. The Public Folders object is treated as a storage group.

For Exchange Server 2010/2013 systems, the storage group object is removed. Server and Database Availability Group (DAG) objects appear only under the Exchange Organization.

Note: For Exchange Server 2013, public folder databases no longer exist. Exchange Server 2013 public folders are now created under the public folder mailboxes which can reside in one or more mailbox databases.

Note: If a mailbox or folder has the character “\” in its name, the character is substituted with another character in the Backup Manager only for display purposes (restored data will have the “\” character).

Example: Character Substitution

A folder named a\b\c displays with the character substitution in the Backup Manager.
