6. Click Finish.
HP 3PAR Recovery Manager encrypts the password and saves the configuration as an XML
file with the filename EmailConfig.xml. Each time a virtual copy or a backup is created
or validated or a restoration is performed on this mailbox database/storage group, HP 3PAR
Recovery Manager checks the XML file and, if email is configured for the task, sends an email
with the task information and/or error messages.
NOTE: Ensure that the Port of SMTP server is not already in use or not blocked by antivirus.
NOTE: If SMTP server is not enabled for authentication, then any password is accepted.

Creating Virtual Copies of Mailbox Databases/Storage Groups
You can use HP 3PAR Recovery Manager to manually create virtual copies at the mailbox
database/storage group level. You can also schedule HP 3PAR Recovery Manager to automatically
make virtual copies of mailbox databases/storage groups.
NOTE: You can configure HP 3PAR Recovery Manager to automatically send email notifications
when virtual copies are created manually or automatically . For more information, see “Configuring
Email Notifications” (page 47) .
NOTE: You can execute concurrent virtual copy creation jobs with integrity check or without
integrity check through HP 3PAR Recovery Manager GUI and multiple HP 3PAR Recovery Manager
CLI instances
How Virtual Copy Creation Works
HP 3PAR Recovery Manager creates virtual copies for Microsoft Exchange Server at the mailbox
database/storage group level because this is the recoverable unit defined by Microsoft.
The log files for all the mailbox/storage group data stores are managed at the mailbox
database/storage group level. Therefore, when HP 3PAR Recovery Manager creates a virtual copy
for a mailbox database/storage group; it creates a virtual copy of all virtual volumes where the
information store, log, and system files reside to preserve data consistency.
If you have Remote Copy set up, you can also create a virtual copy to be saved on a remote server;
this type of copy is called a remote virtual copy.
NOTE: You can only create a virtual copy of a mailbox database/storage group that is online.
NOTE: For more information about setting up mailbox databases/storage groups and volumes
to avoid data loss, see “Configuring the Database” (page 27) .
