In the Operations pane, check the desired checkboxes in the tab for each type of task (Create
Virtual Copy, Backup, and/or Restore) for which you want emails:

Recovery Manager encrypts the password and saves the configuration as an XML file with
the filename EmailConfig.xml. Each time a virtual copy or backup is created or a restoration
is performed on this mailbox database/storage group, Recovery Manager checks the XML
file and, if email is configured for the task, sends an email with the task information and/or
error messages.

Creating Virtual Copies of Mailbox Databases/Storage Groups

You can use Recovery Manager to manually create virtual copies at the mailbox database/storage
group level. You can also schedule Recovery Manager to automatically make virtual copies of
mailbox databases/storage groups.

NOTE:

You can configure Recovery Manager to automatically send email notifications when

virtual copies are manually or automatically created. For more information, see

“Configuring Email

Notifications” (page 39)

.

How Virtual Copy Creation Works

Recovery Manager creates virtual copies for Microsoft Exchange Server at the mailbox
database/storage group level because this is the recoverable unit defined by Microsoft.

The log files for all the mailbox/storage group data stores are managed at the mailbox
database/storage group level. Therefore, when Recovery Manager creates a virtual copy for a
mailbox database/storage group, it creates a virtual copy of all virtual volumes where the
information store, log, and system files reside in order to preserve data consistency.

If you have Remote Copy set up, you can also create a virtual copy to be saved on a remote server;
this type of copy is called a remote virtual copy.

NOTE:

You can only create a virtual copy of a mailbox database/storage group that is online.

NOTE:

For more information about setting up mailbox databases/storage groups and volumes

to avoid data loss, see

“Configuring the Database” (page 25)
