Hi
you can't do want you want to do.
Have a look into the following documents
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555603/en-us
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb125070.aspx
the following statement is from the second one:
Mailbox databases are portable between servers that are running the same
version of Exchange and that are in the same administrative group. A mailbox
database created on one server in an administrative group can be renamed or
copied to a different storage group on the same server or to a different
server in the same administrative group. After this renaming or copying has
been done, the links between user accounts and mailboxes must be reconfigured.

Hi there, want to do some testing on using ntbackup to backup/restore.
exch2003 information store.
On production server (exch2003sp1, w2k3sp1) successfully backup information
store to a bkf file. I copied the bkf file to a test server (exch2003sp2,
w2k3sp1) with a different domain name/server name/exch org. I used wizard
mode to restore, after select the information store, i tried both
"alternation location" or "single folder" but still failed with following
message:

At this moment I only want to successfully extract the edb & stm files from
the bkf file to c:\restore on TEST server. What should I do?
Many thanks!
