- 3 Support and other resources
- Index
Specify this option if you use Exchange Server 2007 to perform restoration on a specific Information
Store from backup data obtained by using VSS. Specify the Information-Store-name parameter
after the storage-group-name parameter by separating the two parameters with a backslash (\
). If you specify the Information-Store-name parameter for backup data other than backup data
that was obtained by using VSS, an error occurs.
If multiple Information-Store-name parameters are specified, a comma must be used to separate
each parameter. If an Information-Store-name parameter contains space characters, the entire
string must be enclosed in double quotation marks ("). The Information-Store-name parameter
is not case sensitive. If you omit this option, all storage groups on the server on which this command
was executed will be restored.
-f target-definition-file-name
As with the -target option, specify this option to restore specific storage groups or Information
Stores. Unlike the -target option, the -f option lets you specify a target definition file, which
contains all the storage groups or Information Stores to be restored. The target definition file containing
the list of storage groups or Information Stores must be created before you use this option. Use an
absolute path to specify the target definition file.
Note: If you use Exchange Server 2007 to perform restoration in units of Information Stores from the
backup data obtained by using VSS, create a target definition file whose entries are in the form of
storage-group-name\Information-Store-name (the same format as that of the value of the
-target option) and then specify the name of that target definition file.
-force
Specify this option to restore data from the secondary volume to the primary volume by forcibly
resynchronizing the volumes.
You can perform a forced resynchronization if the copy group name of the primary volume (obtained
when backup processing was performed on the file server or database server) matches the information
on the file server or the database server. You can perform a forced resynchronization even though
the LDEV and SERIAL numbers do not match the LDEV and SERIAL numbers when backup processing
was performed.
Specify this option only if restoration by resynchronization could not be performed with the -resync
option, such as when the LDEV number changed when the volume was replaced. If you specify this
option for normal restoration, data might be corrupted.
-recovery
Specify this option to perform a recovery by roll-forwarding. When you execute the command with
this option specified, transactions recorded after a backup are restored, and the database is returned
to its most recent state. To execute this command, all transaction logs, from the time the backup was
made to the time the command was executed, must be stored on the Exchange Server.
If you omit this option, the database will return to the state it was in at the time it was backed up.
You must specify this option if you use Exchange Server 2007 to perform restoration in units of
Information Stores from backup data obtained by using VSS. If you have specified an Information
Store using the -target option or -f option without specifying the -recovery option, the command
terminates in an error. However, if all Information Stores within a storage group have been specified,
you can restore backup data without specifying the -recovery option.
-pf copy-parameter-definition-file
Specify this option to use the number of retries and the retry interval defined in the copy parameter
definition file. Specify the copy-parameter-definition-file parameter as a file name only;
do not specify the parameter as a path.
