Doctor doctor, it hurts when I do this! Don't do that.
-----Original Message----- From: Maglinger, Paul [mailto:pmaglin...@scvl.com] Sent: Friday, November 2, 2012 5:39 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Exchange DAG restore to recovery database Here's further clarification on what I want to do. We're testing retention policies. A particular user wanted to be in on the test group. Said user did not set up retention tags. Said user waited until after 45 days before discovering stuff "disappeared". Said user wants his stuff back. So I don't need to recover the DAG as the DAG. I need to recover the database so I can export said user's stuff to a PST. > -----Original Message----- > From: Michael B.
