Hi,

 

1. Install the Agent for Applications and Databases. This will allow you to backup using GRT, and in turn restore GRT. In other words, you'd backup an entire Exchange Information Store and then restore individual items. To restore you'd simply browse to a date you'd want to restore from on the Exchange server, select the mailbox and then the mail, and then restore into the original mailbox, or redirect.

2. To backup Exchange, you'd have the Information Store selected, and turn off AOFO for your job. It is that simple.

3. You license the Agent for Applications and Databases on the media server, and then install the Remote Agent for Windows Servers on the Exchange server.

The RAWS agent can be installed on any other server you want to backup, but you need additional RAWS agents for this.

Thanks!

1 & 2 :  IF you have exchange agent , you can perform GRt backup of the mailbox store which will allow you to restore individual mailboxes or even a mail item. 

2. You need to install remote agent on the exchange server . On the media server you need to install the exchange license key and the hyper-V agent license key >

Hi

how i can see and expand so i can choose the individual mailbox only in database mailbox exchange

Ans : Once you backup your exchange databases with GRT option turned on and end of successfull backup if you click on restore tab & then click on individual items restore ,you will be able to see the single mailbox view

Please see the attached snap you will see the same view if you have got successfull GRT backup of databases

 

Thanks

Currently ou cannot backup individual mailboxes . You have to backup the complete mailbox store with Grt option enabled. Once the backup is complete, when you expand the mailbox store it will allow you to select the individual mailboxes and you can restore any item from the mailbox.

Make sure the account you are using to perform backup have apropriate rights .

Here are some documents for you reference

...why not duplicate to disk first, and then try restoring from there?

After backup individual mailbox success in exchange 2010, i found restore always failed with mailbox i choose and the message job fail : XC.Tester.com Restore 00002 -- The job failed with the following error: Cannot log on to EWS with the specified credentials. Review the resource credentials for the job, and then run the job again.
