Restoring Full and Differential Backup sequence

This example assumes that Full Backups are performed every Sunday night at 11:00 p.m. and that Differential Backups are performed Monday through Saturday at 11:00 p.m. If recovery is performed on Tuesday, Sunday’s Full Backup and Monday’s Differential Backup must be restored. If recovery is performed on Thursday, Sunday’s Full Backup followed Wednesday’s Differential Backup must be restored.

Using advanced restore procedures

This topic describes other restore operations that you can perform with the plug-in.

Renaming Storage Groups/Mailbox Databases

Supported Backup Methods: ESE and VSS (2007 and 2010)

The Plug‑in for Exchange allows you to rename a Storage Group/Mailbox Database during VSS-based restores. Renaming is useful if you do not want to overwrite the existing version and want to create a copy of the Storage Group/Mailbox Database. The following prerequisites are met before initiating the restore:

Ensure that the following prerequisites are met before initiating the restore:

Target Storage Group must exist: The target Storage Group must be created in the Exchange System Manager or Exchange Management Console.
Database names must match original: The database names in the target Storage Group must match the database names in the original Storage Group.
Database filenames must match original: The database filenames in the target Storage Group must match the database filenames in the original Storage Group; however, the database file path or directory for the target Storage Group can be different.
Target Mailbox Database must exist: The target Mailbox Database must be created in the Exchange System Manager or Exchange Management Console.
Database names must be different from the original: The name of the target Mailbox Database must be different from the name of the original database.
Database filenames must be different from the original: The database filenames in the target Mailbox Database must be different from the database filenames used in the original Mailbox Database.

To complete the rename process, perform the following steps.

2
Select Plug‑in for Exchange from the Plugin Type list.
4
On the Create Selection Set page, select the Storage Group/Mailbox Database that you want to rename.
5
From the Actions list, select Rename.
6
In the Rename/Relocate dialog box, enter the existing name of the target Storage Group/Mailbox Database in the Rename box, and click Ok.
8
Open the Exchange Management Shell.
Get-Mailbox -Database <SourceDatabase> |where {$_.ObjectClass
Get-Mailbox -Database <SourceDatabase> |where {$_.ObjectClass
| Set-Mailbox -Database <TargetDatabase>
Replace <SourceDatabase> with the name of the original database and <TargetDatabase> with the name of the destination.

Moving databases to an alternate Storage Group

With the restore rename functionality, you can move a database to an alternate Storage Group.

IMPORTANT: The plug-in does not support the relocation of database file paths. Use the Exchange Management Console or the Exchange System Manager to relocate a database file path. You can find complete instructions in the relevant Exchange documentation. In addition, see How to Move a Storage Group Path at: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb125252.aspx

You cannot use the database rename feature to rename a database in the same Storage Group.

You cannot restore a database to an alternate Storage Group if the same database has already been restored to a different database in that same Storage Group.

If the source Storage Group has multiple databases, you cannot use a single restore job to restore the multiple databases to separate Storage Groups. You can move one database to a Storage Group in the first Restore job and move the next database to a different Storage Group in a subsequent Restore job.

Ensure that the following prerequisites are met before initiating the restore:

Target Storage Group must exist: The target Storage Group must be created in the Exchange System Manager or Exchange Management Console.
Database must exist: The target database must be created in the Exchange System Manager or Exchange Management Console.

To move a database to an alternate Storage Group, perform the following steps.

2
Select Plug‑in for Exchange from the Plugin Type list.
4
On the Create Selection Set page, select the Storage Group.
5
From the Actions list, select Rename.
6
In the Rename/Relocate dialog box, enter the existing name of the target Storage Group in the Rename box, and click Ok.
7
On the Create Selection Set page, expand the Storage Group, and select the database being moved.
8
From the Actions list, select Rename.
9
In the Rename/Relocate dialog box, enter the existing name of the target database in the Rename box, and click Ok.
10
Continue with the restore procedure as explained in Setting restore options, ensuring that the Set 'This Database Can Be Overwritten by a Restore' option is selected for ESE-based restores, and Finalizing and submitting the restore job.
