Enable LCR on the database
3. Enable LCR on the storage group
Enabling the Database
The first step in enabling LCR on an existing mailbox server is to ensure there are not multiple databases
per storage group: It may be necessary to create additional storage groups and databases and move
users. Once the storage group is ready, enable LCR with the Enable-DatabaseCopy cmdlet:
Enable-DatabaseCopy -Identity < DatabaseIdParameter > [-CopyEdbFilePath
< EdbFilePath > ] [-DomainController < Fqdn > ]

The Identity parameter is the database source that will be LCR enabled. This database cannot be a
recovery storage group database.
The parameter CopyEdbFilePath is the location of the backup database ( .edb ) file. This path cannot be
the same as the source location. Also, the LCR database filename must be identical to the source database
filename.
The following example enables LCR on the first storage group on the server MB100:
Enable-DatabaseCopy -Identity ???MB100\First StorageGroup\Mailbox Database???
-CopyEdbFilePath ???E:\LCRbackup\storagegroups\sg1db\mailbox database.edb???
To check the status of the LCR on a database, check the HasLocalCopy parameter from the
Get-MailboxDatabase cmdlet. If HasLocalCopy is true , LCR is enabled for that database, and it is
false otherwise.
