Configuring The Integration; Prerequisites - HP Data Protector A.06.11 Integration Manual

• Stop/quiesce application is executed, which dismounts the databases
and verifies their consistency using esefile.exe (Exchange 2000) or
eseutil.exe (Exchange 2003). See
• When the replica is created, Restart the application is executed, which
mounts dismounted databases.
• If ZDB to tape is performed, Data Protector backs up Exchange databases on the
backup system. Transaction logs are not deleted and can be backed up in a
separate session using non-ZDB procedure.
ZDB process depends on whether you replicate your data in a split mirror or snapshot
replication and on the selected ZDB type. Restore process depends on the restore
type - standard restore or instant recovery. See the HP Data Protector zero downtime
backup concepts guide for a detailed description of replication techniques, as well
as ZDB and restore processes.
