About the Microsoft application agent for Exchange
The Microsoft application agent enables an application administrator to protect and recover the Exchange application data on the application host. PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance integrates with the Microsoft application agent to check and monitor backup compliance against protection policies. PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance also enables central scheduling for backups.
You can install the Microsoft application agent on a Windows Exchange Server host by using the install wizard.
NOTE
PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance supports the coexistence of the Microsoft application agent and the File System agent on Windows.
To enable the discovery and scheduling of backups with PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance, you must approve the client in the PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance UI.
The Microsoft application agent does not support the MetaCacheDatabase (MCDB) feature in Exchange Server 2019. Ensure that you do not enable MCDB in Exchange Server 2019.
Software compatibility information for the PowerProtect Data Manager Appliance software and application agents is provided in the E-Lab Navigator.
