4 Configuring Recovery Manager
Configuring the Database
• Be sure to use Exchange files created on basic disks using the NTFS file system. Recovery
Manger does not support other types of file systems.
• Maintain a 1:1 relationship between storage groups and volumes:
Do not add more than one storage group plus its data files to a volume.◦
◦ Do not add files from one storage group (including its data files) to multiple volumes.
◦ Do not store non-Exchange data on volumes that store Exchange data files.
CAUTION: Be sure to maintain a one storage group:one volume relationship.
Configuring Recovery Manager
Installation Location
By default Recovery Manager installs in %SystemDrive%\Program Files\3PAR\RM\Exchange
Search Path
The Recovery Manager executables are stored in the directory you specify during installation.
Recovery Manager automatically adds the specified directory to the Windows environment variable
PATH; you can therefore issue Recovery Manager CLI commands from any directory.
Changing the Recovery Manager TCP/IP Port
The Recovery Manager listening service on each Recovery Manager Agent component installed
on the mailbox server and Recovery Manager backup server communicates through a TCP/IP port.
By default, Recovery Manager communications use port 9933. If port 9933 is available, no extra
port configuration is necessary.
If port 9933 is not available, you must change the Recovery Manager TCP/IP port.
NOTE: The TCP/IP port used by Recovery Manager for Exchange must be the same on all
associated hosts in the centralized backup configuration.
1. Select an available port. The valid TCP/IP port range is 1024 to 65535.
2. To set a new port number, issue the RMExch portconfig command.
For example, to change the port number to 9950:
RMExch portconfig -h spotted -p 9950
3. Restart the Recovery Manager for Exchange Agent service.
4. Repeat these steps for all associated hosts in the centralized backup configuration.
Configuring Exchange Server Policies
• To use the Recovery Manager GUI to set storage group policies, see “Using the Recovery
Manager GUI” (page 29).
• To use the Recovery Manager CLI to set storage group policies, see “Using the Recovery
Manager CLI” (page 51) for information about using the RMExch policy command.
