About the Quick Recovery Configuration Wizard

The Quick Recovery Configuration Wizard provides the most complete method of configuring snapshot sets and is therefore recommended for initial configuration. The Quick Recovery Configuration Wizard enables you to schedule all phases of snapshot creation and maintenance as follows:

The wizard enables you to set up and schedule multiple snapshot sets for one or more databases of the selected Exchange instance. You can set up one or more schedules for each snapshot set.

You can schedule when to prepare the snapshot mirrors, when to create the initial snapshot sets, and when to refresh the snapshot sets, enabling you to establish a schedule that best suits your site. For example, you can schedule mirror preparation, the most time-consuming step, for a time of low activity.

The scheduling capability automates the process of refreshing the snapshot sets. At the scheduled times, the snapshot volumes are automatically reattached, resynchronized, and then split again. Once configured, snapshot schedules are maintained by the Veritas Scheduler Service, which runs in the background.

The wizard also enables you to save all configuration settings to a .tpl file (an XML file) that can be imported for use on other systems.

Note:

The Quick Recovery Configuration Wizard does not support scheduling snapshots of the passive copy in an Exchange 2010 DAG.
