Welll...... If you need that mailbox
You can restore the entire mailbox db And then restore and/or search a single mailbox inside of that db From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Daniel Chenault Sent: Thursday, January 23, 2014 8:20 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [NTSysADM] DPM, Exchange, brick-level restore I did not set up these jobs so cannot speak to how they were done. I see no other mailboxes at all. I think I'll destroy the existing group and rebuild it as you say. ________________________________ From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: RE: [NTSysADM] DPM, Exchange, brick-level restore Date: Thu, 23 Jan 2014 20:08:13 +0000 Hi Daniel-We're using DPM 2012 (not R2 yet) on WS08 R2, so not an exact match, but close. You mention the volume, but not the Exchange backup options, so I'm wondering if you have the right type of backup set, or options installed? Do you see any other mailboxes when searching to restore? Our new system is an Exchange 2013 DAG, and we had to do a couple of things to support it with DPM. First is to install Exchange tools on the DPM server, and then when creating the protection group, you select the Exchange node (All Exchange Storage groups), rather than a disk volume. In the case of a DAG, I connect via the DAG name when selecting the DBs to back up, rather than each individual server. -Bonnie From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Daniel Chenault Sent: Thursday, January 23, 2014 11:39 AM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [NTSysADM] DPM, Exchange, brick-level restore Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard System Center 2012 R2 DPM Attempting to do a mailbox restore. DPM/Recovery/Select appropriate DB/Select "Exchange Mailboxes" Put in search parameter for a mailbox I know is in that DB and click Search. No matching items were found. The only thing I can think of is that the volume being backed up is a dynamic volume on the SAN rather than fixed. I'm not finding any kind of documentation that calls this out as an issue but I see no other explanation. Can anyone clarify please?
