The ValidateOnly switch parameter simulates the mailbox connection only. Using
ValidateOnly is a good way to see which account will be associated without committing the action.
Recovery Storage Groups
The recovery storage group (RSG) is a feature used for recovering mailbox data from a special database.
The RSG differs from user and public folder storage groups. It is not possible to use any clients, such as
Outlook or Outlook Web Access, to access the mounted database. RSGs can be used to recover mailbox
data, or as part of recovery from a dial - tone recovery strategy. To use the Exchange Management Console
to create an RSG, select the Database Recovery Management tool in the toolbox.
Creating an RSG can be broken down into the following steps:
1. Create an RSG storage group.
2. Create a recovery database linked to an existing database.
3. Set the recovery database to allow overwrite.
4. Restore the database.
5. Mount the database.
6. Restore mailbox data.
