TargetExchangeServer
The iSCSI target pushes the recovered mailboxes to a mailbox on a target Exchange server. Make sure
that the target mailbox has enough available space for the recovered mailbox. Otherwise, the Exchange
Recover will fail.
You will specify the target Exchange server from the wizard.
QuantumVSSAgent
The vmPRO Exchange Recovery feature performs best when the Quantum VSS agent performs the
backup of mailboxes on an Exchange server. To enable the Quantum VSS Agent, see Quantum VSS
Writer.
Note:You must use version 1.3 or higher of the Quantum VSS agent.
AddingtheExchangeServertotheOrganizationManagementDomainGroup
When using the Quantum VSS agent to perform the backup of mailboxes on an Exchange server, add
the Exchange server to the Organization Management domain group within Microsoft Exchange. Adding
the Exchange server to the domain group enables the Quantum VSS agent to capture the mailbox
database information during a backup. Then during the recovery of an Exchange server's mailboxes, the
vmPRO can access the mailbox database information located on the backed-up Exchange server.
