Registering storages from streaming backups created with Tivoli Storage Manager

To extract Exchange Server databases from streaming backups created with Tivoli Storage Manager, you can use one of the following methods:

  • Method 1: Register storages using direct access to Tivoli Storage Manager Server. Allows you to connect to a Tivoli Storage Manager Server and register storages from specific backups held on the server. This method supports streaming backups only.
  • Method 2: Register storages using 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 Tivoli Storage Manager. After that, you can redirect the restore operation to the Recovery Manager for Exchange computer, extract Exchange Server databases, and then register them with Recovery Manager for Exchange. This method supports streaming and VSS snapshot backups.

See the next subsections for instructions on how to use each of these methods.

Method 1: Register storages using direct access to Tivoli Storage Manager Server

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

  • Recovery Manager for Exchange and Tivoli Storage Manager are installed either on the same computer or on different computers that can access each other over the network.
  • Tivoli Storage Manager Backup-Archive Client or Tivoli Data Protection (TDP) for Microsoft Exchange is installed and properly configured on the computer running Recovery Manager for Exchange.

For more information on how to install and configure Tivoli Storage Manager Backup-Archive Client or Tivoli Data Protection (TDP) for Microsoft Exchange, see the documentation supplied with your version of Tivoli Storage Manager.

To register storages using direct access to Tivoli Storage Manager Server

  1. In the Recovery Manager Console, from the main menu, select Add Storages | From Backups.
  2. On the Select a Backup Access Method page of the wizard, select Access Exchange backups with thirdparty software. Click Next.

    1. From the Use this software list, select IBM Tivoli Storage Manager.
    2. From the Software version list, select the Tivoli Storage Manager version installed on the computer from which you want to retrieve and restore backups.
    3. Click Next.
  4. If the Select a Backup Access Method page opens, select Connect to backup server, and click Next.
  5. Follow the steps in the wizard to complete the storage registration operation.

Registering a public folder database using Exchange emulation

Although Tivoli Storage Manager cannot restore backed up public folder databases to alternate location, you can still use Exchange emulation to register a public folder database from a backup created with Tivoli Storage Manager.

To register a public folder database, use the Add Storage Wizard to start Exchange emulation the way you normally do when registering mailbox databases. On the wizard pages listed in the table below, do the corresponding action.

Table 14: Actions required to register a public folder database

Add Storage Wizard page Your action
Select How to Provide Information Select the Manually enter information about Exchange Server option. In the next steps of the wizard, enter information about the server you want to use.

In the Databases list, do the following:

  • Name column. Type the name of the public folder database you want to register.
  • Type column. Select Mailbox database.

Working with Microsoft Data Protection Manager

To extract and register Exchange Server databases from backups created with Microsoft Data Protection Manager, Recovery Manager for Exchange connects to the Data Protection Manager backup server and uses an open application programming interface (API) provided by Data Protection Manager.
