Document Level Data Restore Important! If the mailbox you want to restore has been deleted but the user associated with this mailbox still exists and has the same properties, associate this user with the new mailbox. If both the mailbox you want to restore and the user associated with the mailbox have been deleted, you must create a new user. If you use this option, an email is sent to the new mailbox to finalize it and notify you that the mailbox is ready for use. If you want to customize the contents of this email, you can create a new message and save it as an RTF file in the CA ARCserve Backup Agent for Exchange directory to replace the default MailboxInitialize.rtf. In addition, you can also customize the subject line of this email by using the following registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ComputerAssociates\CA ARCserve Backup\ExchangeDocumentAgent\Parameters Value Name:FirstMailSubject Value Type: REG_SZ Value Data:The desired subject line ■ Create user if not existing--If you selected the Create mailbox if not existing option and do not have an existing user to associate with the mailbox, you must use this option and enter a password because every mailbox must have a user associated with it. When entering the password, ensure that it meets the length, complexity, and history requirements of the domain and server you are restoring to. This option is useful if you want to perform a test restore of a mailbox to the backup server, if you want to audit a mailbox, or if you need a placeholder user because you plan on connecting the mailbox to a different user. When you use this option, the amount of properties that are assigned to the user during restore is determined by what setting you used for the Backup Additional User Properties configuration option during your backup job. For more information on the Backup Additional User Properties configuration option, see Configure the Agent for Document Level Backup and Restore (see page 22). Be aware of the following: ■ After the user is created, regardless of what you selected for the Backup Additional User Properties configuration option, you should still adjust the properties to set group memberships, to set up rights, and to reflect organizational policies. ■ If you want to create duplicates of existing users and mailboxes in the same organization, you must append a string to the user and mailbox names. For information on how to configure this, see Configure the Agent for Document Level Backup and Restore. If you have trouble with mailbox or user creation, see Unable to Create the User Account, Create the Mailbox, or Finalize the Mailbox (see page 124).

Document Level Data Restore
Important!
If the mailbox you want to restore has been deleted but
the user associated with this mailbox still exists and has the same
properties, associate this user with the new mailbox. If both the
mailbox you want to restore and the user associated with the mailbox
have been deleted, you must create a new user.
If you use this option, an email is sent to the new mailbox to finalize it
and notify you that the mailbox is ready for use. If you want to
customize the contents of this email, you can create a new message
and save it as an RTF file in the CA ARCserve Backup Agent for
Exchange directory to replace the default MailboxInitialize.rtf. In
addition, you can also customize the subject line of this email by using
the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ComputerAssociates\CA ARCserve
Backup\ExchangeDocumentAgent\Parameters
Value Name:FirstMailSubject
Value Type: REG_SZ
Value Data:The desired subject line
Create user if not existing--
If you selected the Create mailbox if not
existing option and do not have an existing user to associate with the
mailbox, you must use this option and enter a password because every
mailbox must have a user associated with it. When entering the
password, ensure that it meets the length, complexity, and history
requirements of the domain and server you are restoring to.
This option is useful if you want to perform a test restore of a mailbox
to the backup server, if you want to audit a mailbox, or if you need a
placeholder user because you plan on connecting the mailbox to a
different user. When you use this option, the amount of properties that
are assigned to the user during restore is determined by what setting
you used for the Backup Additional User Properties configuration option
during your backup job. For more information on the Backup Additional
User Properties configuration option, see
Configure the Agent for
Document Level Backup and Restore
(see page 22).
Be aware of the following:
After the user is created, regardless of what you selected for the
Backup Additional User Properties configuration option, you should
still adjust the properties to set group memberships, to set up
rights, and to reflect organizational policies.
If you want to create duplicates of existing users and mailboxes in
the same organization, you must append a string to the user and
mailbox names. For information on how to configure this, see
Configure the Agent for Document Level Backup and Restore.
If you have trouble with mailbox or user creation, see
Unable to Create
the User Account, Create the Mailbox, or Finalize the Mailbox
(see
page 124).
