Choose the Restore Mode.

• Point-in-time Restore: Restores the replica and the transaction logs (without committing the

outstanding transactions).

• Roll-forward Restore: Restores the replica and then commits any outstanding database

transactions stored in the transaction logs.

NOTE:

A roll-forward operation cannot be performed for SQL Servers from within Replication
Manager. Instead, the actual roll-forward operation must be performed using the
drmsqlrecovertool command or SQL Management Studio after completing the restore
operation. (For information on drmsqlrecovertool, see the

HP P9000 Replication Manager

Software Application Agent CLI User Guide.) In addition, you can choose to
Restore data with loading status (inaccessible) or Restore data with standby status
(read-only).
For Exchange 2003/2007 servers, if you are restoring information stores (instead of an
entire storage group), you must choose the Roll-forward Restore option.

For details, see

Roll-forward versus point-in-time restores

” on page 389.

For Exchange 2010 servers, an additional set of options is available under Restore Option that
configure support for Database Availability Groups. (See

About Database Availability Groups

(DAGs)
