11. Select Tools, Restoration Manager.
12. Complete the appropriate fields on the Restoration Manager.

Original Source—The source where the data originally resided.

Restore From—The target that contains the replicated data that users have been updating.

Replication Set—The name of the replication set.

Restore To—The source where the data will be restored to.
13. Disable Only if backup copy is more recent. This option must be disabled because if the
services were stopped on the source after the time they were stopped on the target, the source
files will have a more recent date and time and the target files will not be restored.
14. Identify the correct drive mappings for the data and any other restoration options necessary. For
detailed information on the restoration options, see the Storage Mirroring User's Guide.
15. On the Orphans tab, select to move or delete orphan files on the source. Orphan files,
such as out-dated transaction logs, may keep the database from starting on the source. For
more information about orphan files, see the Storage Mirroring User’s Guide.
16. Verify that the selections you have made are correct and click Restore. The restoration
procedure time will vary depending on the amount of data that you have to restore.
When the restoration process is complete, the restoration status information will no longer
appear in the right pane.
17. If you are performing a failback for an Exchange server, continue to the next section, Rehoming
the Exchange objects to the source , to complete the restoration process.
18. Continue to Re-enabling protection on page 11-7 to complete the restoration process.
Rehoming the Exchange objects to the source
After the restoration is complete, you will need to run the Exchange Failover utility
(
exchfailover.exe
) to rehome the informational store databases to the source. For more
information about using the Exchange Failover utility, see Using the Exchange Failover (EFO)
Utility on page G-1.
1. From a command prompt on the source, run the
post_restore_<source server
name>_<target server name>.bat
file that Application Manager automatically generated.
2. Restart any Outlook clients so that they can access the source.
To re-establish protection of the Exchange data on the source, create a replication set, re-establish
the Storage Mirroring connection to the target, and begin failure monitoring as documented earlier
in the procedure.
If DNS failover was selected, the clients will have to wait for the IP cache to expire, or type in
“
ipconfig /flushdns
” in a command window. This time can be adjusted by lowering the TTL
(Time to Live) setting within your DNS server’s configuration. For more information, refer to your DNS
server documentation.
