To perform restoration of data from a VSS backup, the Protection Manager service must be running
on the backup server.

To roll forward transaction logs at the time of restoration:

1.

Check the backup ID and Information Store name of the backup data.

To check the backup ID and Information Store name, execute the

drmexgcat

command. The

backup ID is displayed in

BACKUP-ID

and the Information Store name is displayed in

INFORMATIONSTORE

. Since this example restores the mailbox store, check the Information Store

name of the item for which

OBJECT

is

MAILBOXSTORE

.

DBServer > drmexgcat -target SG1

2.

Create a backup ID record file.

Execute

EX_DRM_BACKUPID_SET

with the backup ID specified to create a backup ID record

file. Here, use operation ID

Operation_A

.

DBServer > EX_DRM_BACKUPID_SET Operation_A -backup_id 0000000001

3.

Specify the Information Store name to restore the Information Store from the secondary volume
to the primary volume and roll forward the transaction logs.

Restore the data from the secondary volume to the primary volume. To restore the data, execute

EX_DRM_EXG_RESTORE

on the database server.

To execute roll-forward, specify the

-recovery

option. To specify the Information Store name,

specify the

-target

option.

DBServer > EX_DRM_EXG_RESTORE Operation_A -resync -recovery -target

Backing up and restoring between local sites and remote sites

This section provides an example of backing up storage groups on Exchange Server from a primary
volume in the local site to a secondary volume in the remote site, and an example of restoring storage
groups from a secondary volume in the remote site to a primary volume in the local site, using the
volume replication functionality such as Continuous Access Software or Continuous Access Journal,
which allows you to copy data between storage systems. The explanations in this section use operation
examples for Exchange Server 2007.
