How to export a PST file in Exchange 2010 and Tivoli Data Protection Client..this will make you forget the Exmerge tool :)

Do not tell me you miss the exmerge all miss him.... So I'm glad to show and share this solution:

Pre-requisites: (all must be installed in your Mailbox server)

1. TDP for  Microsoft Exchange client version 6.1.3
   ftp://public.dhe.ibm.com/storage/tivoli-storage-management/maintenance/tivoli-data-protection/ntexch/v613/x64/
2. TSM BA Client  version 6.2.2
   ftp://public.dhe.ibm.com/storage/tivoli-storage-management/maintenance/client/v6r2/Windows/x64/v622/
3. Update Rollup 2 for Exchange Server 2010 Service Pack 1
   
   http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2425179
4. Microsoft Exchange Server MAPI Client and Collaboration Data Objects 1.2.1  http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=94274318-27c4-4d8d-9bc5-3e6484286b1f&DisplayLang=en

    5.  A Recovery Database doesn't exists
Check the Tivoli for Mail documentation : http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tsminfo/v6/topic/com.ibm.itsm.mail.exc.doc/b_dp_mail_exc_guide_win.pdf

Configure in your TDP client the DBTemp and LOGTemp directory and the CAS server (only available in the 6.1.3 version)

When you run the below command  a new Recovery Database will be created in the local mailbox server, you must provides the user name's alias to recover and the date. If you want to recover a mailbox user from another server that local you must add the /EXCSERVER switch in the command. Then the application will search the user in the catalog and the backup more closely to the date you 've indicated before. After that the application will creates the Recovery Database in your server dismounted and start the restore.
Very important take in care the permissions, be sure that the account is member of Organization Management Role and add the send as and full access permission

Add-MailboxPermission -Identity 'CN=User1,CN=Users,DC=test,DC=ca' -User 'TEST\restoreadmin' -AccessRights 'FullAccess'

Add-ADPermission -Identity 'CN=User1,CN=Users,DC=test,DC=ca' -User 'TEST\restoreadmin' -ExtendedRights 'Send-as'

From "your_installation_path\Tivoli\TSM\TDPExchange\" open the Exchange Client - Command Line and type:

TDPEXCC RESTOREMAILBOX user1 /TSMPASSWORD=Password /MAILBOXORIGLOCATION=MBX1T1,MST1DB1 /MAILBOXRESTOREDAte=02/16/2011 /MAILBOXRESTOREDESTination=PST,e:\pst\user1.pst

and this is the output
