Extracting a database from a snapshot backup

Working with storages > Extracting an Exchange Server database from backup > Working with CA ARCserve Backup > Extracting a database from a snapshot backup

Note: The procedures described in this topic may vary depending on the version of ARCserve Backup that you use. For more information, see the ARCserve Backup documentation.

To extract and register Exchange Server databases from snapshot backups created with ARCserve Backup, you need to use the Exchange Emulation feature provided in Recovery Manager for Exchange. Recovery Manager for Exchange can emulate Exchange Server restore interface, so that the computer running Recovery Manager for Exchange appears as an Exchange server to the backup software. As a result, Exchange database is extracted from the snapshot backup to the Recovery Manager for Exchange computer and then registered as a storage.

To extract data from a snapshot backup, complete the following steps:

Each of these steps is described in the next subsections.

Step 1: Start Exchange Server emulation on the Recovery Manager for Exchange computer.
  1. Make sure that the Volume Shadow Copy Service is running on the Recovery Manager for Exchange computer.
  2. In the Recovery Manager Console, from the main menu, select Add Storages | From Backups.
  3. On the Select a Backup Access Method page of the wizard, select Access Exchange backups with thirdparty software. Click Next.
  4. On the Select Backup Software page, do the following:
    1. From the Use this software list, select CA ARCserve Backup.
    2. From the Software version list, select the version of ARCserve Backup installed on the computer from which you want to retrieve and restore backups.
    3. Click Next.
  5. Step through the wizard to specify parameters for emulating restore interface of Exchange Server.
  6. On the Emulating Exchange Server page, wait until the Status box displays “Emulation started. Waiting for connection from backup application.”
  7. Install the Backup Agent for Microsoft Exchange supplied with your version of ARCserve Backup.
Step 2: Extract and register Exchange Server database
  1. Start ARCserve Backup Manager. For more information, see the documentation for your version of ARCserve Backup.

If you are working with ARCserve Backup 15.0, 16.0, or 16.5, start ARCserve Backup Manager on the Recovery Manager for Exchange computer.

  1. From the main menu, select Quick Start | Restore.
  2. On the Source tab, specify the snapshot backup you want to use, and select the backup components to restore. For more information, see the documentation for your version of ARCserve Backup.
  3. On the Source tab, perform the steps related to your version of Exchange Server:

Table 10: Steps to complete on the Source tab

A pre-2010 Exchange Server version Exchange Server 2010 or later
  1. Right-click a storage group, and then click Agent Option.
  2. Make sure you clear the following check boxes: Restore to Recovery Storage Group Run recovery after restore Mount database after restore
  3. Click OK.
  1. Right-click a database, and then click Agent Option.
  2. Make sure you clear the following check boxes: Restore to Recovery Databases Run recovery after restore Mount database after restore
  3. Click OK.
  1. On the Destination tab, make sure the Restore files to their original location(s) check box is cleared, and then ensure that the Recovery Manager for Exchange computer is available on that tab as a restore destination.

Note: In some versions of ARCserve Backup, you may need to refresh the Exchange Organization node on the Destination tab so that the Recovery Manager for Exchange computer becomes available in that node. If refresh does not help, right-click the Exchange Organization node, click Active Directory Servers, and then use the dialog box that opens to add any domain controller from the forest in which the Recovery Manager for Exchange computer resides.

  1. Select the Recovery Manager for Exchange computer as the restore destination:
    1. Expand the node that represents the Recovery Manager for Exchange computer, and then select the Microsoft Exchange Server - Database Level node. In some versions of ARCserve Backup, the node representing the Recovery Manager for Exchange computer is located in the Exchange Organization node.
    2. From the main menu, select Restore | Destination Context Menu, click Security, and specify credentials to access the destination computer. The account you specify must have local administrator rights on that computer.
    3. Expand the Microsoft Exchange Server - Database Level node, and select the subnode that represents the storage group you are emulating on the Recovery Manager for Exchange computer.
  2. From the main menu, select Restore | Run/Schedule, and specify the required parameters to submit and run the restore job.

If you receive a message reading that the mailbox database is not restored to the recovery database, ignore that message.

  1. After restoring all backup sets, return to Recovery Manager for Exchange. If you did not specify the last backup set in ARCserve Backup, on the Emulating Exchange Server page of the Add Storage Wizard, select the Last backup set restored check box, and step through the wizard to complete the storage registration operation.

Working with EMC NetWorker

Working with storages > Extracting an Exchange Server database from backup > Working with EMC NetWorker

You can use Recovery Manager for Exchange to register Exchange Server databases from the following types of backups created with NetWorker:

  • Streaming backups
  • Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) snapshot backups

In the next sections:

Registering storages from streaming backups created with NetWorker

Working with storages > Extracting an Exchange Server database from backup > Working with EMC NetWorker > Registering storages from streaming backups created with NetWorker

Recovery Manager for Exchange provides the following methods for extracting and registering Exchange Server databases from streaming backups created with EMC NetWorker:

This method does not have as many prerequisites as Method 2, yet the storage registration operation performed using Method 1 might take longer.

  • Method 2: Use Exchange Server emulation. Allows you to run Exchange Server emulation on the Recovery Manager for Exchange computer so that it appears as an Exchange Server to NetWorker. After that, you can perform directed recovery: redirect the restore operation to the Recovery Manager for Exchange computer, extract Exchange Server databases, and then register them with Recovery Manager for Exchange.

In most cases, Method 2 allows you to complete the storage registration operation faster than Method 1.

However, Method 2 has more prerequisites and therefore requires more effort than Method 1.

Both these methods let you register storages only from streaming backups created with NetWorker. The next subsections provide instructions on how to use each of these methods.

Method 1: Use direct access to NetWorker Server

Before using this method, ensure the following prerequisites are met:

  • Recovery Manager for Exchange and NetWorker Server are installed on the same computer or on different computers that can access each other over the network by NetBIOS and DNS names.
  • NetWorker Client is installed and properly configured on the Recovery Manager for Exchange computer. Make sure the Client can connect to and interact with NetWorker Server and has access to the backups holding the Exchange Server databases you want to register with Recovery Manager for Exchange.

For more information on how to install and configure NetWorker Client, see the documentation supplied with your version of NetWorker.

To register storages using direct access to NetWorker Server
