Restore Operations<br />

◆ Patch files are written to the backup media.<br />

◆ Committed transaction logs are truncated (deleted) by MS <strong>Exchange</strong>. These logs are<br />

no longer required since they have been committed to the database file and they have<br />

been written to the backup media.<br />

Restore Operations<br />

Using a few simple operations, an administrator using the Backup, Archive, and Restore<br />

interface can browse <strong>Microsoft</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong> <strong>Server</strong> backups and select the ones to be<br />

restored.<br />

Limitations with <strong>Exchange</strong> 2000 restores<br />

The following limitations exist <strong>for</strong> <strong>NetBackup</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Microsoft</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong> <strong>Server</strong> when<br />

per<strong>for</strong>ming <strong>Exchange</strong> 2000 restore operations.<br />

◆ A restore of more than one storage group at a time (per job) will fail.<br />

Methods<br />

<strong>NetBackup</strong> provides three methods to per<strong>for</strong>m restores:<br />

◆ server-directed<br />

◆ redirecting a restore to a different client<br />

◆ redirecting a restore to a different path<br />

An overview of these methods is given in the following sections. For more in<strong>for</strong>mation on<br />

these restore methods and other administrator-directed activities, refer to the <strong>NetBackup</strong><br />

<strong>System</strong> Administrator’s Guide <strong>for</strong> UNIX or <strong>NetBackup</strong> <strong>System</strong> Administrator’s Guide <strong>for</strong><br />

Windows.<br />

<strong>Server</strong>-Directed Restore<br />

An administrator can browse <strong>NetBackup</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Microsoft</strong> <strong>Exchange</strong> <strong>Server</strong> files and select<br />

the ones to be restored. When the administrator initiates the restore, the request is passed<br />

from the client to the <strong>NetBackup</strong> master server. Once the server validates the request, the<br />

restore operation becomes fully managed by the server, which identifies the storage<br />

device and the volume containing the MS <strong>Exchange</strong> databases by querying the<br />

<strong>NetBackup</strong> database. The server then transmits the data back to the client.<br />
