How to Recover a Database to Its Original Location

When you recover a Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 database to the original location, Data

Protection Manager (DPM) does not use the latest log files from the protected server; therefore,

the recovery is to the last saved state. To perform a database recovery without losing data,

recover the database to the original location using one of the following methods:

• If there are no databases mounted under the storage group, recover the storage group using

the Latest recovery point.

• If any database is mounted under the storage group, create a recovery point for the storage

group, and then recover the database using the Latest recovery point.

If you select Latest as the recovery point for an Exchange Server 2007 database, DPM applies

the log files from the protected server and performs a lossless recovery without any additional

steps.

Note

In Exchange 2007, if there are multiple databases in a storage group, all databases will

be dismounted during recovery. An Exchange 2007 best practice is to have one database

per storage group.
