RMExch validate

SYNTAX

RMExch validate -s <ExchangeServer> -g <StorageGroup> -t <Timestamp>

[-domain <DomainName>]

DESCRIPTION

The RMExch validate command verifies the data integrity of the exchange database files in
the specified virtual copy that is already mounted on the system.

PARAMETERS

The following options are supported:

-s <ExchangeServer>

- The name of the Exchange server for which the storage group

belongs.

-g <StorageGroup>

- The name of the storage group for which the virtual copy timestamp

belongs.

–t <Timestamp>

- The already mounted timestamp for validation.

-domain <DomainName>

- Optional. Specifies the domain to which the Exchange server

or storage group belongs.

If this option is not specified, Recovery Manager uses the local domain.

WARNING!

If the validation operation failed on the virtual copy, the failed virtual copy cannot

be used for backup and restoration purposes. It is the user’s responsibility to manually remove the
failed virtual copy.

NOTE:

Use quotes ("") for names that include spaces.

Example

The following command validates the specified Exchange database.

RMExch validate -s bottlenosed -g sg2 -t 020405162103

Running Recovery Manager as a Scheduled Job

In addition to creating virtual copies using the Command Line Interface, you can also schedule
automatic creation of virtual copies for a specific storage group using the Recovery Manager for
Exchange GUI or using Windows:

Scheduling Virtual Copies using the Recovery Manager GUI

You can schedule virtual copies at the same time you create a virtual copy of a storage group. For
more information, see

“Using the Recovery Manager GUI” (page 29)

.

Scheduling Virtual Copies with Windows Task Scheduler

NOTE:

Because the command RMExch create communicates with Exchange via the file

CDOEXM.dll

, you must have Exchange administrator privileges to schedule this task.

To create virtual copies using Windows Task Scheduler:
1.

Click Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Task Scheduler.

Result: The Task Scheduler appears.

2.

Double-click Create Task.
