Cataloging an Exchange backup or VMware backup that uses Granular Recovery Technology (GRT)
As an alternative to duplicating a backup image, you index or catalog the mailbox and public folder contents of the backup without creating a copy. The user can then more quickly browse the backup and perform restores. Use the following command to generate a full Exchange catalog with granular information for the image:
bpduplicate -bc_only
See the NetBackup Command Reference Guide for the options that may apply. For example, without options this command operates on all images within a default date range. This command works only on the primary copy of an Exchange image or Exchange view of a VMware image.
Note that for a VMware backup that protects Exchange, the mailbox user name is not cataloged at the time of the VMware backup.
If you specify a granular proxy host with the bpduplicate command, configure the Exchange hosts in the master server host properties.
