Configuring Exchange Granular Recovery 46

About Exchange backups and Granular Recovery Technology (GRT)

You can restore individual items using GRT from the following types of backups:
■ Full or user-directed backups
NetBackup lets you create a complete policy for disaster recovery, with all the
various types of schedules. However, you cannot restore individual items from
an incremental backup.
■ VMware backups that protect Exchange

■ Local snapshot backups

■ Off-host snapshot backups
■ Instant recovery backups, when the schedule copies the snapshot to a storage
unit
■ Replica snapshot backups
This type of backup applies to a Database Availability Group (DAG).

About mailbox discovery and Granular Recovery Technology (GRT)

To perform Exchange restores with Granular Recovery Technology (GRT),
NetBackup needs certain information about the Exchange mailbox. For Exchange
2010, NetBackup obtains mailbox information by querying the Exchange database.
This query is not sufficient for Exchange 2013, so NetBackup obtains the Exchange
2013 mailbox information through Exchange PowerShell. To save processing time
during a GRT backup, the Exchange plug-in for the NetBackup Discovery Service
starts local discoveries every 24 hours. It then sends the master server a list of the
databases that it has discovered. The plug-in only gathers mailbox information for
the most recent Exchange backup source for the database. It does not gather
information from a server when a different server was the most recent backup
source. If a database has no backup history, the plug-in gathers information for that
database on each server that hosts a copy of the database. When the Discovery
Service does not gather mailbox information for a database, NetBackup gathers
the information in the snapshot job.
If you want to reset the backup status, see the following topic:
See “Displaying and resetting the backup status for a Database Availability Group
(DAG)” on page 187.
For information on where NetBackup logs discovery and other information, see the
following topic:
See “Debug logs for NetBackup for Exchange backup operations” on page 175.
