HP Application Software Suite for Microsoft Exchange Running Recovery Manager on a Japanese OS

•Microsoft Exchange System Management Tools must be installed on the backup server.

NOTE: If you are running a Single Copy Cluster (SCC) or a CCR (Cluster Continuous Replication) on Windows 2008, the backup server needs to have the "Failover Clustering" feature enabled to function properly.

•HP 3PAR VSS Provider 2.1.0 or higher Software for Microsoft Windows is required.

•Microsoft .Net Framework V3.5 or higher is required by VSS Provider.

•Visual C++ (2005 Redistributable) Runtime libraries (x64 or x86). You can install this automatically by running the Setup.exe program provided with Recovery Manager for Exchange.

There is a known issue for Recovery Manager for Exchange when running Setup.exe on Windows 2008. If you have already installed the Visual C++ Runtime library, the install script still asks you to install it. You can install it again or directly install it from the .msi file.

•For CCR configurations on two HP 3PAR Storage Systems, where both nodes are separated by a long distance, two Recovery Manager for Exchange backup servers are required.

NOTE: For platform-specific release levels, refer to the latest HP 3PAR InForm OS Configuration Matrix. To obtain a copy of this documentation, go to http://www.hp.com/go/3par/, navigate to your product page, click Support for your product, and then click Manuals.
