Ideally, you need to make sure that the directories where the databases
are stored are backed up, but the contents of the directories are not.
In the event of a disaster recovery restore, Exchange will not restore
if the directories do not exist. It is of course sufficient just to
mkdir them before you do the restore.

When you create a recovery storage group for a specific database, any
attempt to restore that database gets automatically diverted to the
recovery storage group. As long as the database in the recovery storage
group is set to 'can be overwritten by restore', and the real database
is not, you shouldn't break anything.
