Precautions when restoring an Exchange database

Precautions when restoring from a tape

When using the

drmmediarestore

command, or

EX_DRM_TAPE_RESTORE

extended command

to restore an Exchange Server storage group, you need to delete the Exchange Server transaction
log files remaining on the secondary volume. On the backup server, delete the transaction log files
as follows. Note that if you are using NetBackup for the tape backup management software, you do
not need to perform the following when performing tape backup with the

-raw

option specified.

1.

Execute the

drmtapecat

command with the

-o MSEXCHANGE

option specified. Then, check

the backup ID of the tape backup used for restoration, and check the absolute paths to the folders
containing the transaction log files for the Exchange database.

2.

The absolute paths to the folders containing the transaction log files must be checked for all the
Exchange database that have been backed up with the backup ID used for the restore operation.

3.

Use the

drmmount

command to mount the secondary volume. Use the backup ID determined

from step 1.

4.

Check the folder in which the transaction log files specified in step 1 are stored, as well as the
files stored in the folder. Note that when you use the

drmmount

command to mount the secondary

volume, the command might assign a drive letter that is different from the drive letter that was
assigned during backup. In this case, replace the drive letter you found in the transaction log file
in step 1 with the drive letter assigned by the

drmmount

command.

5.

Delete any files in the folder displayed in step 4 at have the

.log

extension.

6.

Perform steps 3 and 4 for all Exchange databases that have been backed up.

7.

Use the

drmumount

command to unmount the secondary volume. The backup ID used here is

the same as that used in step 1.

Note on performing a recovery using roll forward

If recovery is performed using roll forward (the

drmexgrestore

command is executed with the

-recovery

option specified) and there are insufficient transaction logs, the

KAVX1510-E

or

KAVX1703-E

message will be output. If the

drmexgbackup

command with the

-transact_log_del

option is used to delete the transaction logs, roll forward cannot be performed for any backup obtained
before that point.

Procedure for handing the message (KAVX1510-E)

For restorations with roll-forward recovery (executing the

drmexgrestore

command with the

-recovery

option specified), if the Exchange database to be recovered has more than 1,008
