Hello Guru's
I have been asked by our Exchange admin to restore a specific MSExchange DB file. I have never done one before so I attempted it with some trepidation :)
I needed to retore the DB file only and to a temporary location on an exchange backup server (just to avoid any unecessary overwrites :) ). Attached is a screen shot showing the settings I chose.
I kicked off the backup and it failed???
