RMExch create

SYNTAX

RMExch create -s <ExchangeServer> -vs <verification_server> -mdb

<mailbox_DB_name> [-nc [-truncate]] [-rc <TargetServer> [-defer]]

[-noemail] [-exp <time>{h|H|d|D}] [-retain <time>{h|H|d|D}] [-f] [-domain

<DomainName>]

DESCRIPTION

The RMExch create command creates a virtual copy of a mailbox database on the primary host
where Exchange is running.

By default, Recovery Manager for Exchange exposes the virtual copy to the backup host during
virtual copy creation for data-integrity checking. Also by default, the Exchange transaction log is
truncated after the virtual copy validates successfully.

This command only supports online backup of an entire mailbox database. Therefore, you must
make sure the mailbox database is online before creating a virtual copy.

PARAMETERS

The following options are supported:

-s <ExchangeServer>

- The name of the Exchange server.

-mdb <mailbox_DB_name>

- The name of the mailbox database to shadow copy.

-vs <verfication_server>

- The server on which snapshot verification is performed.

This cannot be used with the -nc option.

-nc

- Optional. Skip the integrity check. Not recommended. This cannot be used with the

-vs

option.

-truncate

- Optional. Force truncation of log upon successful VC creation when -nc is

used.

-rc <TargetServer>

- Optional. Indicates the virtual copy creation is for Remote Copy.

Specify the target server on which to create the virtual copy once Remote Copy completes.

-defer

- Optional. Defer the log truncation decision after the Remote Copy completes. This

cannot be used with the -nc or -truncate options.

-noemail

- Optional. Do not send an email notification even if configured for this operation.

-exp <time>{h|H|d|D}

- Optional. If the policy is expiration-based, set the expiration

time for this virtual copy to the specified time. Valid values are:

To set the expiration time in hours: 1-43800h (or H)

To set the expiration time in days: 1-1825d (or D)
