Selecting the Exchange data by using the Archive view

1. In the Show list, select the required archive type: Exchange information store or Exchange mailboxes.
2. In the list of archives, click the required archive and select to which state to recover the data:
   • Recover from the selected backup (selected by default), expand the archive and select one of the successive backups by its creation date and time. The data will be recovered to the time of backup creation.
   • Recover to the point of failure (available for the database backups only) - the data will be recovered to the state of the most recent record in the most recent transaction log file, if it exists in the Exchange. If transaction logs are not available in the original location (lost, deleted or corrupted), the data will be recovered to the moment of backup creation.
   • Recover to a custom point in time (available for the database backups only) - specify the date and time to recover the data to. During recovery the software will first recover data to the time of the last created full backup before the specified time and then apply the transaction log files from the transaction log backups. See the "Point in time selection" section for details.
3. For the database–level archives only: in Backup contents, specify the data items to display in the backup contents tree.
   • Information store - to recover entire information store, or individual databases, or storage groups.
   • Mailboxes - to recover entire mailboxes, public folders, individual folders, e-mails, calendar events, tasks, contacts, etc.
4. In the backup contents tree, select the check boxes for the items you need to recover.

   Use search to find the specific items (such as e-mails, notes, contacts, tasks, etc.) within the selected mailbox or public folder and select them for recovery. To do this, click Search and proceed as described in the "Searching for specific items in mailboxes and public folders" section.

   Note: Browsing the backup contents tree down to individual e-mails and to other items is performed by using the meta data that is collected at the backup. The level of detail for collecting metadata is set in the Metadata collection option. If the most detailed level is not set, in order to browse individual e-mails, Acronis Backup has to open the respective database and apply transaction logs directly from the backup. The process of opening the database may take considerable time depending on the number of transaction logs to apply. The amount of time depends on the number of transaction log files in the backup.

   The opened database will be closed automatically after 10 minute idle or when you start browsing the contents of another backup.
