Not sure about Exchange but it is probably like SQL Server 7 in that it
really does not like name changes especially if you are in the 5.5 range.
You will probalbly have to install exchange with the production name then
restore.  More of a Microsoft thing than a Tivoli thing.

Subject: Exchange cross system restore?


I have multiple exchange servers with TDP on them.  I have another Exchange
server used for DR purposes only.

I would like to restore one of the Exchange servers to my DR Exchange
server.

I went into the TDPExchange/dsm.opt and changed the node name to the name of
one of the production servers, and was able to restore the production
servers data.

Now my problem, getting Exchange to start.  The services are not starting.

Any suggestions? ... or a completely different procedure?


I must be able to do this so I can complete the acceptance testing to
de-commission a BackupEXEC server we are using for Exchange (everything else
that was on BackupEXEC is on TSM now!)

TIA ... Jack
