Recovery Manager overwrites the mailbox database with the virtual copy. The mailbox
database is now restored.
Restoring a Mailbox Database with Volume Restore
WARNING!
DO NOT perform a volume restore if multiple mailbox databases (or any data files)
share any volumes. Data files suffixes are: .LOG and .EDB.
To determine how or whether your mailbox databases share volumes, execute the
chk_multi_storage.cmd
script. By default, this script is installed at: Program Files/3PAR/
RM/Exchange/bin
If you perform a volume restore on a volume that hosts multiple mailbox databases and/or data
files, the operation deletes all mailbox database data not contained in the promoted virtual copy.
1.
In the node tree pane, right-click the virtual copy you want to use for the restore, and select
Restore Using
→Volume.

To confirm you understand the ramifications of proceeding with the restore, check the Click
to continue checkbox.
3.
Click Ok.
The virtual copy completely overwrites the mailbox database. The mailbox database is now
restored.
Restoring a Mailbox Database from a Media Backup
You can restore backups to their original location (i.e., the volume(s) or directory location of the
virtual copy that was used to create the backup, not to the original Exchange data location), or
you can specify an alternate location.
