Creating a Virtual Copy of an LCR-Enabled Storage Group (for Exchange 2007)
You can use Recovery Manager to create a virtual copy of a storage group for which Local
Continuous Replication (LCR) is enabled.
When you create an LCR virtual copy, Recovery Manager uses Exchange’s LCR copy as the source
of the virtual copy. (An LCR copy is a replica of a storage group, created using Exchange’s LCR
feature, that is continually updated with Exchange data.) Recovery Manager also creates a virtual
copy of all virtual volumes where the information store, log, and system files reside to preserve the
data for consistency.
To create an LCR virtual copy of a storage group:
1.
In the node tree pane, right-click the LCR-enabled storage group for which you want to create
a virtual copy, and select Create
→LCR Virtual Copy.
2. In the Validate Virtual Copy area, select whether you want Recovery Manager to validate the
server name or skip validation of the LCR virtual copy, and whether you want Recovery
Manager to truncate the log.
3. Optional: If you want to adjust the expiration or retention time policy values (or both) for this
virtual copy (or, if you are scheduling automatic copies, this group of virtual copies):
•
To adjust the expiration time, select the Expiration Time checkbox and enter the new
expiration time.
•
To adjust the retention time, select the Retention Time checkbox and enter the new retention
time.
Even if the policy has a retention time value, you can override the policy for an individual
virtual copy in this Retention Time checkbox. Valid values are 0 (for no retention time) to
43,800 hours/1,825 days.
For more information, see “Setting the Recovery Manager Policy” (page 43) .
4. To immediately create one LCR virtual copy, click Finish in the Create Virtual Copy dialog box.
To schedule virtual copies, see
