4. Repeat these steps for all associated hosts in the centralized backup configuration.
Configuring Mailbox/Exchange Database Policies
•
To use the Recovery Manager GUI to set mailbox database policies (or storage group policies
for Exchange 2007), see
“Using the Recovery Manager GUI” (page 33) .
•
To use the Recovery Manager CLI to set mailbox database policies (or storage group polices
for Exchange 2007), see
“Using the Recovery Manager CLI” (page 57) for information about
using the RMExch policy command.
Configuring Mount Functionality
The Windows automount feature is not compatible with Recovery Manager. To ensure that the
Windows automount feature is disabled:
1.
Open a command prompt (cmd) window.
2. Enter: diskpart
3. At the DISKPART prompt, enter: automount disable
4. Exit the command prompt window.
Configuring Recovery Manager for DAG (or CCR for Exchange 2007)
(For Exchange 2010) Recovery Manager for Exchange (4.1.0 and later) supports Database
Availability Groups (DAG). DAG configurations can be implemented at a single site or span
multiple sites. Each configuration must have one central Recovery Manager for Exchange backup
server and at least one active mailbox/Exchange server and a potential maximum of 15 passive
mailbox/Exchange servers.
•
If your DAG configuration uses a single HP 3PAR Storage System at a single site, you require
one backup server.
•
If your DAG configuration spans to multiple HP 3PAR Storage Systems at a single site, you
require:
◦ One backup server
◦ An additional host server for verifying mailbox virtual copies. This is optional when the
storage systems are at single site.
◦ You need to connect one HP 3PAR Storage System to the backup server
◦ The other HP 3PAR Storage Systems must be connected to additional hosts for virtual
copy verification purposes, unless the production DAG host is used as the verification
server.
•
If your DAG configuration spans multiple HP 3PAR Storage Systems at multiple sites, you
require one backup server per site
(For Exchange 2007) Recovery Manager for Exchange 2007 supports CCR.
•
If your CCR configuration uses a single HP 3PAR Storage System, you can rely on a single
backup server. You do not need to perform any additional configuration steps.
•
If your CCR configuration spans to two HP 3PAR Storage Systems, you require two backup
servers: one connected to each HP 3PAR Storage System. One backup server acts as the
backup server managed CCR active node, and the other acts as the peer backup server
managed CCR passive node. If the storage systems are at single site, this is optional.
Both backup servers can execute Recovery Manager CLI commands.
You must use the RMExch peer CLI command to configure the peer backup server as described
in RMExch peer (page 64). To display the current configuration, use the RMExch peer display
CLI command.
