I am trying to restore a full backup I made from our Exchange 2003 server. I read the docs and a long conversation from Graham Keeling which seemed to end in a bug report that is closed.
I am trying to restore the backup into a fresh Exchange server which has a Recovery Storage Group. I read somewhere that if a restore group is available, Exchange will use it no matter what target you specify (which is fine with me). This is what I tried: Restore, mark all files in First Storage Group, including First Storage Group itself, set Where to '/' and let it run. Result: 'Error: HrESERestoreAddDatabase failed with error 0xc7fe1f42 - Database not found. Check that the Database you are trying to restore actually exists in the Storage Group you are restoring to.' The Recovery Storage Group folder actually gets a recovery folder when the job starts so it is doing *something*. Then I tried a number of variations but finally I read in a bug report that you should only restore one database at a time. So I selected the First Storage Group, entered the directory and unmarked the Public Folder part, leaving this: $ lsmark *C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\mdbdata\E0002FC5.log *C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\mdbdata\E0002FC6.log *C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\mdbdata\E0002FC7.log *C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\mdbdata\E0002FC8.log *Mailbox Store (AXMAIL)/ *C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\mdbdata\priv1.edb *C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\mdbdata\priv1.stm *DatabaseBackupInfo Run Restore job JobName: fRestoreFiles Bootstrap: /var/bacula/axnet-dir.restore.11.bsr RegexWhere: !/First Storage Group/!/Recovery Storage Group/! Replace: always FileSet: Empty FileSet Backup Client: axmail-fd Restore Client: axemail-fd Storage: File When: 2009-06-25 16:48:44 Catalog: MyCatalog Priority: 10 Plugin Options: *None* Which resulted in the Database not found error again. Finally I removed the Recovery Storage Group as a whole and ran it again and got a "Error: HrESERestoreOpen failed with error 0xc7fe1f44 - Unknown error.". I am running out of ideas and the docs ain't helping. Is Bacula 3.0.1 able to restore Exchange in the first place? Shouldn't I use the regex? Should I use a different regex? So far, the best result I got is the restoration of the log files without any other data - which after 5 hours if pretty frustrating.
