We had issues trying to restore an Exchange 2013 DAG database to a recovery
storage group with Avamar. After our 4th tech from their support line, we
finally found a solution.
Within the C:\Program Files\AVS\VAR folder, create or edit the file named
AVEXVSS.cmd and add the following lines:
#--federated
--vss-snapshot-timeout=120
--subworkorder-timeout=120
#--debug
--rdb_stabilize_wait=600
Then, from the Avamar interface:
i.Choose "Overwrite existing"
ii.Choose "Restore to a Recovery Storage Group"
As long as the Avamar service account has the correct permissions it should
create the recovery storage group automatically.
Good luck!

I was beginning to lean the recovery DB route.
Thank You.

I tend to have the backup software write a recovery database and then do the
rest of it myself. I’m also a bit paranoid.

Unpopular opinion:
I get paranoid of backup software connecting directly to Exchange and find
myself restoring entire mailboxes by exporting the mailbox to a .pst file.

Subject: [Exchange] Mailbox restore question
I am trying to restore a persons mailbox and it errors out. Exchange 2010 SP3
RU10 backup software is Avamar 7.1. The persons AD account was deleted in error
and recreated by another group, with a new mailbox. I caught the restore
request as the person wants his old emails.
Can my problem be that the restore sees the mailbox as having been deleted and
does not like me directing the mailbox restore into the new mailbox.
I have opened a ticket with the backup vendor, Amavar/EMC.
