Redirecting the restore of an Exchange mailbox, mailbox folder, or public folder
This topic describes how to redirect the restore of a mailbox, mailbox folder, or public folder to a different mailbox or public folder.
Caution:
Public Folders require Publisher Editor permissions at the folder level on the target folder to allow restore to another folder.
To redirect the restore of a mailbox, mailbox folder, or public folder
- Log onto the server as Administrator.
- Open the Backup, Archive, and Restore interface.
- Click File > Select Files and Folders to Restore > from Normal Backup.
- Click File > Specify NetBackup Machines and Policy Type.
- In the Specify NetBackup Machines and Policy Type dialog box, select the server and the policy type.
- You cannot restore individual items from an incremental backup that uses Granular Recovery Technology (GRT).
From the NetBackup History pane, click the image(s) that contain the objects you want to restore. Select one of the following:
The last full backup
The last full backup and all subsequent differential backups
The last full backup and the last cumulative backup
- In the All folders or right pane, click the mailbox or public folder to restore.
- Click Actions > Restore.
- On the Microsoft Exchange tab, select the restore options you want.
- On the General tab, click Restore everything to a different location.
- In the Destination box, indicate where you want to restore the object. You must indicate an explicit path (or full path).
Change the mailbox name to another existing mailbox. For example, if you want to restore the contents of
Mailbox 1toMailbox 2\Folder, specify one of the following in the Destination box:Microsoft Exchange Database Availability Groups:\DAG\Microsoft Information Store\ My-database\Database\mailbox2 [mailbox2] Microsoft Information Store:\My-database\Database\mailbox2 [mailbox2]\
When you restore public folders, change the public folder name to the folder to which you want to restore. This folder does not have to exist.
- Click Start Restore.
