I posted this over at technet but no luck so i'll try here.

I'll do my best explaining and give all the info you may need.
Running Win 2K8 R1 standard w/ SP2 64-bit
Exchange 2007
NFS service installed

I'm trying to get Granular backup using Netbackup 6.5.4 however no such

luck. Netbackup requires NFS service to be installed however there are
NFS
errors on both exchange and Netbackup and it fails. If I try to restart
NFS
in the services.msc I get error. I then need to restart the server for
NFS
to start again.

I'll copy & paste some of the errors below, I've done A LOT of googling
and
haven't found any solutions except that it may be a problem related to
SP2
and to roll-back...this is not a solution that is feasable to my
manager.

This error when I try to restart the NFS service.

> The Client for NFS service on local computer started and then stopped.
> Some

>
> programs

my last attempt I got this error in the Windows logs:

> Windows(R) failed a request to initialize the Network File System (NFS)
>
> redirector
> <[d:\longhorn\base\fs\remotefs\nfs\client\nfsclient\service.c:199]

Other errors that I've seen in past troubleshooting.

We are a professional Services company so we have certified staff in
Microsoft and both Netbackup and no one is able to solve the problem.
Our NetBackup guy says he's done this exact install at a client with NO
NFS
configuration and it worked.
