    Correct, you need to create it

     

    Cut from Exchange Admin Guide (6.5)

     

    In the Destination box, indicate where you want to restore the object.
    ■    You must indicate an explicit path (or full path) in the Destinationbox.
    ■    When you restore mailboxes, change the mailbox name to another existing mailbox.
    For example, if you want to restore the contents of Mailbox 1 to Mailbox 2, specify one of the following in the Destination box: Microsoft Exchange Mailboxes:\Mailbox 2\ Microsoft Information Store:\Storage Group\Mailbox Store [Mailbox]\Mailbox 2\

The restore operation is initiated from the supervisor console . The backup on tape that I need to restore is from the production server and I want to restore it on the test server.

The mailbox does not exist on the test server.

Only the mailbox group has been created on the test server.

Maybe I should create the mailbox before restoring ?
