Unregistering a Domain

1.

Remove all mailbox servers and Windows hosts from the domain you are unregistering.

Recovery Manager does not allow you to unregister domains that contain Recovery Manager
for Exchange components.

2.

Right-click the MS Exchange node and select Unregister Domain.

3.

In the Unregister Domain dialog box, enter the server name you are removing from the Recovery
Manager configuration.

4.

Click Ok.

Working in Multiple Domains

To use the GUI to manage Recovery Manager operations on mailbox databases and Windows
hosts in nonlocal domains, use the same GUI procedures as you do for mailbox databases and
Windows hosts in the local domain.

Registering the Mailbox Database

Before the GUI can manage servers, you must register all servers.

To register a server:
1.

Right-click the MS Exchange node and select Server/Mailbox Registration from the context
menu.

2.

Select a mailbox database that is managed by the Recovery Manager for Exchange GUI.

3.

Click OK.

Recovery Manager takes a few minutes to scan all mailbox databases, then it updates the
node tree with your selection. This process might take longer the first time you register mailbox
databases.

Setting the Recovery Manager Policy

Recovery Manager applies policy settings at the mailbox database level; therefore, each mailbox
database can have its own policy. In addition, you can configure individual virtual copies with
their own policy settings.

How Recovery Manager Policies Work

The Recovery Manager policy-setting feature allows you to:

Specify and configure either a numeric-based or expiration-based policy

Specify a retention time during which the mailbox database and its virtual copies cannot be
removed (if you have an HP 3PAR Virtual Lock license)
