Recovery Data
The FRS life cycle can be summarized as follows:
•(1) The production server maintains production storage groups or databases on specified production volumes of the disk array.
•(2) The FRS GUI runs on the recovery server. It captures copies of the Exchange storage groups from the production volumes and stores them on recovery volumes of the array. FRS creates, maintains, and manages these
•(3) When a data corruption occurs, the administrator uses the FRS graphical user interface to replace the damaged storage group or database with the most recent known good
