Hi All,I’m hoping for some guidance from those who have completed this step of the deployment (Complete the Guided Setup for Active Directory) I want to give the service account least privileged access to the domain as I am not comfortable with giving the service account full domain admin rights as it has been suggested by the deployment team.Has anyone got a break down of steps to achieve the above in Active directory? from what I've seen looks like we need to perform some of the required permissions within ADSI Edit?Any guidance would be great especially from those who have implemented this successfully.

It could be nice, when I choose a Restore point to view a summarize of the Exchange On Line mailbox content (size, item count, and so on). It helps to understand, for example, if a user deleted a lot of email from one restore point to another.It could also help a browsing feature (day by day should help) into Backup Stats for having a quick sight between days. Thank you

Dear Team, Our VMware backups for AWS VMs are running successfully in Metallic, with an AWS S3 bucket as the primary (disk library) and a secondary copy to Metallic Cold Storage—no issues observed.We now have similar VMs in Azure and would like to configure backups in Metallic as follows: Primary copy: AWS S3 bucket (disk library) Secondary copy: Metallic Cold Storage Licensing: We have sufficient Metallic licenses for these VMs. Questions / Request Can we use the existing S3 bucket as the primary copy for the Azure VMs as well? If this isn’t recommended, please advise the best practice (e.g., dedicated bucket, separate prefixes, or segregated retention/encryption). Please confirm prerequisites and constraints—cross-cloud connectivity (Azure → AWS), firewall rules, IAM/KMS requirements, bandwidth/egress considerations, and any incremental cost impacts.
