DS-User F1 Help for GUI (Context-Sensitive) : Select database restore location screen (Microsoft Exchange)
 
Select database restore location screen (Microsoft Exchange)
Use this tab to select the database restore and destination options.
 
Restore To
Original Location:
[Default] Restores files to the original location from which they were backed up.
Alternate Location:
Click this radio button to specify an alternate destination for the restore items. Click >> to select an alternate server.
Restore Options
Mount Database after Restore
Check to automatically mount the database after restore.
Restore via DS-Client pipe
Check to open a named pipe through the DS-Client to the target database for restore. This avoids the need for a buffer directory.
Dismount if Needed
Check to automatically try to dismount database (if mounted).
Delete all existing files
Delete all of the existing files in the restore directory.
Keep existing files
Keep all existing files in the restore directory.
Rename existing files
Renames the existing files, until all restore items are successfully restored.
This takes more space, but avoids problems of failed restores (if a restore fails without this option, the Microsoft Exchange Server will not function).
If this option is selected, then in case of failure, the original files will be renamed back and the Microsoft Exchange database will be mounted.
Temporary directory for logs
This is a location on the destination Exchange computer. There must be sufficient space to accommodate the log and patch files.
