You can use the Restore wizard to add database to a Recovery Storage Group to restore the database. Exchange automatically determines which databases can be added to the recovery storage group and presents you with a list from which to choose.
About this task
If the Recovery Storage Group already contains a database, Exchange limits the list of databases to those in the same Storage Group as the database that you already added to the Recovery Storage Group.
Steps
- In Exchange System Manager, find the server on which you created the Recovery Storage Group, right-click the Recovery Storage Group, and then click Add Database to Recover.
- In the Select database to recover dialog box, click the database that you want to recover and then click OK.
- Type the path to the database located at the LUN mounted on the Snapshot copy created by the selected backup set.
The database file name can be any name (for example, SG2-DB1-RSG.edb) except the database file name (for example, SG2-DB1.edb) that exists on that location.
- Name the database, and define the paths for the database and streaming database files.
- Click OK.
- Rename the existing database to the specified name (for example, SG2-DB1-RSG.edb).
