You are the messaging engineer for your company. You plan to deploy Exchange Server 2007.

Your Exchange Server 2007 design includes the use of local continuous replication. All mailbox databases are backed up daily.

You need to recommend a recovery plan to restore individual mailbox content. Your plan should meet the following requirements:

Information must be restored to a folder other than the original folder.
Deleted mailbox content can be restored after that content has been purged from the mailbox database.

What should you recommend?

A.
Use the Exchange Management Shell to retrieve a list of mailboxes, and then assign those mailboxes to a
managed folder policy.

B.
Mount the local continuous replication database that contains the user mailboxes. Use the Exchange
Management Shell to export user mailboxes to an alternate location.

C.
Restore the mailbox database that contains the user mailboxes to a recovery storage group. Use the
Exchange Management Shell to restore the users mailbox to an alternate folder in the users existing mailbox.

D.
Restore the mailbox database that contains the user mailboxes to a recovery storage group. Use the
Exchange Management Shell to move the user mailboxes to another mailbox database.

Explanation:
The Recovery Storage Group is a special admin group enabling you to mount a mailbox database, extract data from it, then either copy this data to a folder in, or merge it with, an existing mailbox. Data extraction is accomplished using Restore-Mailbox, or the Disaster Recovery Analyzer (ExDRA) tool.

Use Restore-Mailbox to extract mailbox content from a database restored to a RSG. For this operation to succeed, the source must be a disconnected mailbox in an RSG and the target, a connected mailbox in the same forest.

For example, to restore Johns mailbox content into Scotts mailbox under the Recovery folder:

Restore-Mailbox -Identity Scott -RSGDatabase MyRSGDatabase -RSGMailbox John -TargetFolder Recovery
