About this guide
This guide provides information about configuring and using HP
StorageWorks XP Fast Recovery Solutions (FRS) in a Microsoft Windows
Server 2003 environment running Exchange 2003. FRS enables quick
recovery of Exchange storage groups.
FRS combines LUN copy creation and database recovery features for use
with HP StorageWorks XP disk arrays. Using the Microsoft VSS (Volume
Shadow Copy Service), FRS creates and manages recovery-ready copies of
the production Exchange 2003 storage groups to be used in the event of
damage to a storage group. FRS allows you to recover storage groups in
minutes rather than the hours typically required for a conventional restore
from backup.
Unless otherwise noted, the term disk array refers to the disk arrays listed
on the title page of this guide. For information about the disk arrays, please
refer to the owner’s manuals.
IMPORTANT: Software dependencies
This guide describes FRS behavior based on features implemented in the
latest disk array firmware and software versions. FRS may not work if
incompatible software versions are used. Check the README file
accompanying the software to verify that you have the correct versions.
