HP Data Protector A.06.00 additional writers and HP StorageWorks Disk Array XP support for Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service integration

Prerequisites
• For restore to a different location, Inet must run under a domain account which
needs to be member of the following groups on the local system:
• Administrators
• Exchange Server Administrators
• While configuring restore to a different storage group in the Data Protector GUI,
only mounted stores are displayed in the Target drop-down list. To enable all
stores for target selection, mount the dismounted stores and click Reload in the
MS Exchange additional options.
• In case of CCR or LCR restore of the database copy, mount (bring online) the
target store. If you cannot mount the target store (for example, if the files are
missing or the database is corrupted), proceed as follows: Using the Exchange
Management Console, delete the files of the database you wish to mount, then
perform mount operation, and then confirm the message to create an empty
database.
IMPORTANT:
During restore to a non-Exchange location and creation of Recovery Storage Group
(RSG), Data Protector deletes RSG that may already exists at the target location.
Limitations
Due to Microsoft Exchange Server limitations:
• Restore to an LCR or CCR storage group copy (Exchange Replication Service
instance) is not supported. Restore of an LCR or CCR copy to original location
will be performed to the location where original database resides (Exchange
Information Store).
• All stores in a RSG must originate from the same storage group.
• You cannot mount public folders to RSG.
• Because only one storage group in RSG is supported, only one storage group
can be restored with the option Restore to a non-Exchange location and create
RSG.
• 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 in the restore.
