Our large Exchange 2010 DAG environment is configured to perform Weekly Full and daily incremental differential backups. I am trying to restore a DB using last Full backup and two increnemtals. NBU document says I can select a Full and incrementals in one job and recover DB. However the job fails with too many DBs selected to restore. I am able to restore a Full without selecting Commint after restore and then restore each incremental backups and select Commit while restoring last incremental. This works just fine but takes too long.

This is Exchange 2010 DAG being backed up using VSS Snapshots in NBU 7.1.0.1

The restore should work ok with Full and differential selected at the same time. Check your restore selection.

I just tried and here is what I get in Detailed Status. I have only one DB in Test environment, performed a full backup then three Incremental Differencials. When I go to restore them I am selecting Full and three incrementals in one Job.
