Error Message

The beremote debug log  on the exchange server shows:

BEREMOTE: [02/08/11 15:22:44] [1432]     [FSYS:ESE07]   FindDrives ... This is not an Exchange Server (0)
BEREMOTE: [02/08/11 15:23:31] [1432]     AdsiConfiguration::Connect::ADsOpenObject(LDAP://RootDSE) RootDSE-> Failed ... 0x8007054b

Cause

While opening the selection list, an LDAP query is called to discover exchange resources .When the server is in a workgroup or a large environment, it's not able to contact the domain controller .

The delay in opening the selection list is caused due to the time out of the LDAP query.

Resolution

Join the Backup server to a domain if applicable, otherwise this behavior is expected in larger environments.
