Storing and Maintaining Information

Microsoft Exchange Server maintains information in a variety of ways, on both servers and clients. This chapter describes the server's information store and the directory ¾ key components used to share and manage information. You'll also learn about replicating information, an important feature of Microsoft Exchange Server.

Note   It is strongly recommended that you back up Microsoft Exchange Server files on a regular basis, in the event that you need to restore a server following a hardware or software failure.
