Upgrading to HP 3PAR Recovery Manager for Exchange

This section provides instructions for upgrading HP 3PAR Recovery Manager Software for Microsoft
Exchange from version 4.2.0, 4.3.0, 4.4.0, or 4.4.1 to version 4.4.2.

Upgrading from Recovery Manager 4.4.0 for Exchange or Recovery Manager 4.4.1
for Exchange to Recovery Manager 4.4.2 for Exchange

You can upgrade to HP 3PAR Recovery Manager 4.4.2 Software for Microsoft Exchange Server
from Recovery Manager 4.4.0 for Exchange or Recovery Manager 4.4.1 for Exchange. While
doing so, user is prompted for upgrade confirmation. Accepting to do so will uninstall the older
version and install Recovery Manager 4.4.2 for Exchange.

Upgrading from Recovery Manager 4.3.0 for Exchange to Recovery Manager 4.4.2
for Exchange

You can upgrade to HP 3PAR Recovery Manager 4.4.2 Software for Microsoft Exchange Server
from Recovery Manager 4.3.0 for Exchange. While doing so, user is prompted for upgrade
confirmation. Accepting to do so will uninstall the older version and install Recovery Manager
4.4.2 for Exchange.

Migration of Repository from HP 3PAR Recovery Manager for Exchange 4.3 to 4.4.2

The existing repositories of the Microsoft Exchange 2007 and 2010 are identified with StoreServ
ID which is modified to be identified with StoreServ Storage Serial Number in HP 3PAR Recovery
Manager for Exchange 4.4.2. This is to support the changes in HP 3PAR CLI 3.1.2.

The utility RMERepoUtils.exe is executed from the installer during upgrade.

Any operation on the virtual copies created with HP 3PAR Recovery Manager for Exchange
4.3 will fail, if the StoreServ corresponding to the virtual copy was not registered by the HP
3PAR VSS Provider during the upgrade. Hence, RMERepoUtils.exe utility must be
mandatorily executed explicitly after the StoreServ is registered. You can launch it directly
from the installed directory (goodies). For example:C:\Program Files\3par\RM\
Exchange\goodies\lib>RMERepoUtil.exe (No parameter is required)

NOTE:

Follow the instructions of the setup.exe during upgrade to avoid loss of Recovery

Manager repository.

Upgrading from Recovery Manager 4.2.0 for Exchange to Recovery Manager 4.4.2
for Exchange

To migrate from version 4.2.0, remove the current version of HP 3PAR Recovery Manager for
Exchange. Install HP 3PAR Recovery Manager for Exchange 4.4.2 and move the Repository folder
