Exchange 2007

Trying to restore an SG to an RSG on an alternate exchange2007 server using 
legacy restore.
According to the doc,

“When performing a Legacy restore of mailbox databases, if a Recovery Storage 
Group exists, mailbox databases will be restored to the Recovery Storage Group 
instead of to the original storage group. …  If you want to restore the 
Exchange Server 2007 storage group into the Recovery Storage Group, an 
alternate storage group, or into a relocated storage group, right-mouse click 
on the storage group that you selected for restore. A dialog box with a 
drop-down list of available storage groups to restore into will display. If an 
existing storage group does not display in the ″Restore Into″ dialog box, it 
may mean that the correct databases for the storage group have not been 
created. You must create the databases within a storage group before performing 
a ″Restore Into″ function. Select the storage group name that you wish to 
restore into from the drop-down list.”

However, when I right-click, the “help” pops up instead.  I’ve tried this on 
both the recovery server and on the production mailbox server with the same 
results.  When my exchange admin tried it yesterday on the recovery server, it 
looked like it dismounted the production database, as if it was trying to 
restore there instead of to the recovery server she was logged into (the 
recovery failed, thank goodness, they only had to remount the prod db).

Of course the mailbox that we are trying to get back is one of the execs, so we 
need it asap…
