Hello,

we must do a (test) directed restore of 1 Exchange Storage Group. Environment  
NSR 7.2 on windows exchange  with NME 4.1

the goal was to set up a new server with identical windows and exchange setup 
(but on different hardware) in the production environment
 then just do a directed exchange recover.

however the NME admin guide state that this recover server must be  in a 
different activ directory forest

does anybody knows how we can prove (by only using networker) that the exchange 
backup can be restored in case of disaster. we thougt of 2 ways
1) test in in production, like described above, but then a new forest must be 
built (is this really needed?)
2) set up a test environment, but then you need to set up a active directory as 
well and Networker can only recover this as part of the SYSTEM save sets, which 
need Identical Hardware for production and recover server --> not possible

anybody experience? please let me know what you did?

thanks

bart
