I'm trying to understand why Frequent Recovery Point backups (in SnapManager 5.0 for Exchange) throw a .NET exception. I can consistently reproduce this error. Everything else works great !!
First, here's a high-level overview of my environment:
- Windows Server 2003 SP2 w/ all current hotfixes
- Exchange Server 2007 SP1 w/ all current rollups
- Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5
- NetApp SnapDrive 6.0
- NetApp SnapManager 5.0 for Microsoft Exchange
Now, here's that .NET exception (after right-clicking on the Exchange host within SME and selecting "Frequent Recovery Point Backup") :
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Unhandled Exception in Managed Code Snap-in

Any thoughts?
