Data this old, I wouldn't put it anywhere NEAR my production environment. You can use a spare desktop machine for this type of work. Build a new server, and restore your data to that. If I were you, I'd keep it off the same LAN as your production servers, also. Through it on a test-lab VLAN, if you have one.

Request made from a new Exchange Admin. Hello All: Second day on the job as the new Exchange Admin and I need help! My employer has a two yr old backup tape of Exchange data. The Co. was using Arc-Serve 6.5. We are now using Veritas but found a version of Arc-Serve and believe we have recovered the data. Now, I need to place the data onto an Exchange Server so I can XMerge the necessary mailboxes into .pst files. Is there a way I can move the priv.edb and pub.edb files to my bridgehead or other mail servers and XMerge the needed data that is being requested for legal reasons nonetheless? Or, do I need to build a new Exchange Server? Any detailed information is much appreciated. Thank you.
