HP Application Recovery Manager software Integration guide (March 2008)

You can restore two storage groups to both original and a different location in the
same restore session if the target restore client system is the same.
During restore to original location, all stores in the storage group to be restored are
dismounted even if only one store from the storage group will be restored. Stores are
left dismounted after the restore.
Prerequisites
• For restore to a different location, Inet must run under domain account that has
the permissions assigned to the Exchange Server Administrators group. The
account must also be a member of the local Administrators group on that computer.
• If you restore to different storage group and if there are any dismounted stores
you want to use for the restore, mount them before the restore. Otherwise,
Application Recovery Manager cannot list them for the target selection in the GUI.
If this is done while the Application Recovery Manager GUI is opened, you can
refresh the current GUI page by clicking Reload in the MS Exchange additional
options dialog box.
IMPORTANT:
If you restore to a non-Exchange location and create RSG, check that Recovery Storage
Group does not already exist on this location. If Recovery Storage Group already exists,
it will be deleted by Application Recovery Manager. All data stored in the existing
Recovery Storage Group will be lost.
Limitations
• Restore to an LCR or CCR storage group copy (Exchange Replication Service
instance) is not supported due to the Microsoft Exchange Server limitations. Restore
of an LCR or CCR copy to original location will be performed to the original
database (Exchange Information Store) and not to the database copy (Exchange
Replication Service).
• When restoring to a different location, you cannot restore a specific database
store without the transaction logs. When a store is selected for restore, logs are
automatically included for the restore.
• Only one storage group can be restored with the option Restore to a non-Exchange
location and create RSG. This is due to the Microsoft Exchange Server limitation
that only one RSG per server is supported.
• You cannot mount public folders to RSG due to the Microsoft Exchange Server
limitations.
