Hello,
I have a VM for Exchange 2013 cu2 on Hyper-V, which has a snapshot which was mysteriously created. The snapshot has been deleted and I now have two files a vhd and a avhd. The avhd has about 120GB of data in
it.
Here are my questions
1. If I power off the server the two files will merge. Will this lead to a broken Exchange.
2. What are my options for disaster recovery before I try a merge? How can I setup another Identical Exchange server and move all user data so that the outlook client does not need to be reconfigured?
I have backed up the exchange on a file share using Microsoft backup.
3. Can I use this to restore the Exchange server to a physical machine as described
here . The backup files are all VHD files so I'm think this might be a problem.
4. Can I use the backup to restore the exchange server to another virtual machine using the instruction as described in the article above (3)
5. Any other suggestions?
thanks
Raza
