Thinking back to this thread... Are people still using Dial-Tone
Restore Method when recovering Exchange Databases? (Then swap the
databases and merge them).
I never really revisited it since SP2 came out. I know that they
improved the RSG and ExMerge process in SP2
I still practice

I find the dial-tone restores more work than they are worth.
I can restore a database and replay logs in less than an hour.

Yep.
If a server bites it, then, well, that's why we use CCR!

Dial tone is our DR strategy as long as we are still on Exchange 2003.

Even I just have 'a' database. It would take 2.5 hours to restore. I would
rather get people up and running, not rush through a database restore, have
time to do eseutil diag test on it, then merge databases
Heck, I know nothing about licenses!
You do need Windows Enterprise however for CCR.

Drool, I can't wait to get on 2007. If I want
a great option, just not one I prefer over simply restoring
from backup.

Hmm, CCR - sounds like an e2k7 option - we'll be looking at migrating to
that at some point in the future.

2.5? Long time.
Why would you need to run eseutil against a restored database?
Also note that Outlook clients in cache mode will get a warning about
not being able to connect

I find myself needing to restore my entire datastore. The question is,
is it better to:
1) Restore the database directly to the First Storage Group or
2) Restore to a recovery storage group and use exmerge to bring the data
up to date or
3) Restore to a recovery storage group, dismount

It affects everyone. I need to restore the entire Datastore. I had a
mainboard failure and restored the server to crappy temporary hardware. Now
the new hardware is ready
