To restore an Exchange 2007 database to a recovery storage group

  1. Make sure that a recovery storage group exists on the destination Exchange 2007 server, and that a recovery database exists within the recovery storage group.

  2. On the navigation bar, click the arrow next to Restore.

  3. Click New Restore Job.

  4. On the Restore Job Properties pane, under Source, click Selections.

  5. Select an Exchange 2007 database to restore.

  6. On the Restore Job Properties pane, under Destination, click Microsoft Exchange Redirection.

  7. Click Redirect Exchange sets.

  8. In the Restore to server field, type the name of the destination Exchange 2007 server.

  9. Click Redirect using Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) snapshot provider.

  10. Click Redirect to Recovery Storage Group (RSG) (Exchange 2007 only).

  11. Click Run Now.

    Backup Exec restores the Exchange 2007 database to the destination recovery storage group. After the restore job completes, see your Microsoft Exchange documentation for further Exchange 2007 recovery information.
