If you accepted the default installation on the original source (before it failed), set Microsoft

Exchange Messaging and Collaboration Services and Microsoft Exchange System Management

Tools to Disaster Recovery.

10.

Install any Exchange service packs or patches.

11.

Install Storage Mirroring, if necessary.

12.

Copy the following files from the target to the Storage Mirroring directory on the source:



exchfailover.exe



post_restore__.bat

13.

Continue the failback and restoration process.

NOTE:



Because the Exchange disaster recovery installation is configured for tape backup

recovery, informational messages such as the following may appear; however, they

do not apply to this configuration and can be disregarded:
“Use Exchange Admin Snap-in to ensure that you have a valid Exchange Server

Object for this server for which you are running setup in recovery mode.”
“After setup has completed, restore your databases from backup, then reboot your

machine.”



During the post-installation processing, the installation may stall while trying to

start the System Attendant (MSExchangeSA) service. It should take no more than

a couple of minutes to start this service. If it takes longer, use the Windows Task

Manager to terminate the setup process. This will not affect your ability to start

services on the target after a failure.
