Recovering data to the Exchange cluster

To configure data recovery to the Exchange cluster

1. Connect the console to the management server and click Recover.
2. Under What to recover, select the Exchange data to recover as described in the "Selecting data to recover" section.
3. Under Where to recover, in Browse, specify the cluster where data will be recovered to. After you specify the cluster and click OK, Acronis Backup automatically selects the first available cluster node to manage the recovery. The node's name is displayed in the Browse field.
4. In Data paths, select a path to recover the data to (except Specified folder and PST file). Acronis Backup automatically defines a cluster node where the data will be recovered to.

   Notes for recovering storage groups or databases:

   • In the DAG configuration (Exchange 2010 or later), you can manually change the target node if the database to recover does not exist on it.
   • When recovering storage groups in the CCR configuration (Exchange 2007) or databases in theDAG configuration (Exchange 2010 or later), ensure that Mount is selected in Mount recovered databases. This is required for manual configuration or resumption of cluster replication after recovery.

   Notes for recovering mailboxes or public folders:

   • When recovering mailboxes, public folders or their contents, configure the settings as described in the "Recovering mailboxes, public folders and their contents to the Exchange server" section.
5. Under When to recover, specify when to perform the recovery.
6. Click OK to start the recovery task (if it is set to run immediately) or to save the recovery task (if it is set to run later).

Using a similar procedure, you can configure the recovery when the console is directly connected to a cluster node. The steps are the same except that the Browse field is not displayed. The data will be recovered onto this node.

Important: After recovery of storage groups in the CCR configuration (Exchange 2007) or databases in the DAG configuration (Exchange 2010 or later), you need to manually configure or resume replication on the cluster. For detailed instructions, refer to the following articles:
