group repository with the HP 3PAR Storage System:

checkbox unchecked.

Validating a Virtual Copy
You can validate a mounted virtual copy for a mailbox database/storage group with Exchange
APIs through Recovery Manager. To validate a virtual copy, right-click the mounted virtual copy
you want to validate, and then select Validate.
Removing Virtual Copies
You can remove two types of virtual copy: virtual copies with a status of Available, and virtual
copies with a status of Mounted.
WARNING! If you remove a virtual copy from the HP 3PAR Storage System while Recovery
Manager is creating a backup, and you then delete this virtual copy from the Recovery Manager
repository before a restore operation has taken place, all data is lost and you cannot recover the
mailbox database/storage group.
