Microsoft Exchange Server Backup
Recover your Microsoft Exchange mail and mailboxes in minutes by using Rapid Recovery replication, recovery, and backup software. Integrated Microsoft Exchange Mailbox restore performs integrated mailbox backup and recovery, with no need to open a separate application. Your Exchange mail and mailboxes can be back online within minutes because the Rapid Recovery Live Recovery capability lets you prioritize access to your most-needed data while restoring the whole database in the background.
Rest assured that your backups can be restored by using Verified Recovery to automatically test your backup for recoverability nightly.
How Live Recovery works:
Block-level snapshots
Rapid Recovery backups capture
your Exchange data, as well as the application itself, in a collection of
block-level snapshots for backup.
Application awareness
Rapid Recovery makes sure that
all open transactions and rolling transaction logs are completed and caches
are flushed to a disk before it creates a snapshot. Rapid Recovery leverages
Microsoft VSS for application-consistent snapshots.
Fast restore technologies
Rapid Recovery restoration
of metadata allocation tables and database structures, along with its filter
driver and queuing technology, assure that your Exchange backup will let you
get back online within seconds after a failure.
File prioritization
The Rapid Recovery filter driver
sits on the Exchange Server agent and intercepts any data request from the
user. If a user attempts to access a file or email message while a restoration
is in progress, the filter driver will determine whether that particular file
(or email) has been restored and prioritize the immediate restore of the
requested file as necessary. Your end users get fast access while recovery
continues in the background — with ZeroIMPACT on their application
experience.
How Verified Recovery works:
Automated nightly checks
When you backup and protect using Rapid Snap for Applications, Rapid Recovery tests every backup automatically, assuring you that it’s fully recoverable — no need for time-consuming manual backup testing.
Integrity checks
Rapid Recovery performs nightly integrity checks on all backups and protected Exchange servers in just a few seconds.
Checksum verification
Rapid Recovery performs nightly checksums on Exchange database (EDB) pages.
Mount checks
Rapid Recovery performs automated nightly mount checks of file systems and Exchange Server instances.
Notifications
If Rapid Recovery finds problems with backups that would prevent you from restoring the data, it notifies you so that you can fix the issue proactively.
