2. Perform the point-in-time recovery for file copy restore steps 1 to 4: “Point-in-Time Recovery”
(page 117) .
3. With the Exchange databases dismounted, preserve the current log files on your mailbox
database volumes if you were not able to do so for
step 1 .
4. Mount the desired virtual copy for the staging Exchange server either from the HP 3PAR
Recovery Manager GUI or from the command line using the HpRmCli Exch mount
command. For more information, see
“Using the Recovery Manager GUI” (page 40) or “Using
the HP 3PAR Recovery Manager for Exchange CLI” (page 64) .
5. Delete the original .EDB, .LOG, and .CHK files for a clean restore.
CAUTION: ONLY remove the files, NOT the parent or intermediate folders of the files. The
original database path and its structures must be kept the same. You can moved the files to
new locations instead of deleting them.
6. From the backup server execute the HP 3PAR Recovery Manager file copy restore command:
(For Exchange 2010/ Exchange 2013) HpRmCli Exch restore -mdb
<mailbox_DB_name> -t <timestamp> -filecopy
(For Exchange 2007) HpRmCli Exch restore -s <exchangeServer> -g
<storageGroup> -t <timestamp> -filecopy
.
You can also perform a file copy restore using the GUI. For more information, see “Using the
Recovery Manager GUI” (page 40) .
7. Copy the .LOG files that you preserved and overwrite the logs recovered, including the extra
logs not covered by the virtual copy. This process makes the recovery more forward-in-time.
8. Delete the checkpoint file (.CHK).
9. Remount the databases to continue.
The Exchange server performs a soft recovery and automatically replays the log. After the
store is mounted, HP 3PAR Recovery Manager confirms the restore.
Point-of-Failure Recovery for Volume Restore
To perform a point-of-failure recovery for volume restore:
1.
Move the currently existing log files on your mailbox database volumes that you want to roll
forward.
NOTE: If Windows does not allow you to move, or even copy, Exchange .LOG files because
the files are being used by another program, part of Exchange is still live. If this is the case,
move on to
the next step .
2. Perform a point-in-time recovery for volume restore steps 1 to 4: “Volume Promote Point-In-Time
Recovery” (page 118) .
3. With the Exchange databases dismounted, preserve the current log files on your mailbox
database volumes if you were not able to do so for
step 1 .
4. After you have taken all the disks out of maintenance mode, perform the following:
a.
Copy the .LOG files that you preserved and overwrite the logs recovered, including the
extra logs not covered by the virtual copy. This process makes the recovery more
forward-in-time.
b. Delete the checkpoint file (.CHK).
c. Remount the databases to continue.
The Exchange server performs a soft recovery and automatically replays the log. After
the store is mounted, HP 3PAR Recovery Manager confirms the restore.
