SonicWALL CDP 6.0 Agent User’s Guide
The User Mailbox application allows you to add or delete individual user mailboxes for backup,
set backup schedules, restore specific backups of individual mailboxes, enter credentials for
accessing the Exchange server, and select offsite backup. You can view log entries in the
SonicWALL CDP Agent User Interface on the Status tab to verify that backups are successful.
Adding User Mailboxes to an Application Object
To backup user mailboxes, you must configure an application object, a schedule, and a backup
task that includes both the application object and the schedule. This section describes how to
create the application object.
You can test the connection to the Exchange Server by clicking the Authentication button
while adding or editing an application object. It is not necessary to enter any authentication
credentials to test the connection.
To create an application object with individual user mailboxes for backup, perform the following
steps:
Step 1 In the SonicWALL CDP Agent User Interface, click the Policies tab.
Step 2 In the left pane, click Applications.
Step 3 In the right pane, click the Plus button at the lower right corner. The Add Application window
opens.
Step 4 Type a descriptive name for the application object into the Name field.
Step 5 Select Microsoft Exchange - User Mailbox in the Application drop-down list. The list of
available applications is automatically populated through a discovery process. For proper
discovery, the Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy service must not be disabled. See the 'Backup
and Recovery Troubleshooting' section in the SonicWALL CDP Administrator’s Guide for more
information.
Step 6 Under Application items, select the checkboxes for one or more user mailboxes to back up.
