When you recover/restore a exchange Database. How do you ensure users outlook clients do not connect to the database?
I'm assuming when you create the db with a recover and restore to a different drive location it will prevent users from connecting to it. Also, do I need to rename the .edb something different to ensure it does not conflict. I've read a couple of articles, but I haven't seen anything that says the recover switch will ensure I don't impact my existing production db with the restore. My final goal is to restore 1 users mailbox.
new location restore..
D:\>New-MailboxDatabase RecoveryDB -Server EX2 -Recovery:$true -EdbFilePath 'D:\Recovery\D_\Data\EX201\Mailbox Database EX2 01.edb' -LogFolderPath 'D:\Recovery\E_\Logs\EX201-RecoveryDB'
