Exchange 2007 Disaster Recovery with RecoverServer switch
I am trying to restore an Exchange 2007 server running on Windows Server 2008 that had a RAID failure. After using Backup Exec to restore the server from tape, I am getting a blue screen of death on restart. For this reason I am considering just building a new server and reloading Exchange using the recoverserver switch.
After reading the instructions here, it seems straight foward.

I am fairly confident that I can restore my database files after installing Exchange. Are there any other gotchas that I should be aware of? I'm guessing I will have to install another server certificate for OWA but that is all I can think of. Thank you.

Thought this was only the service pack at first but it looks like the full deal.

The recoverserver switch worked amazingly well and smoothly.
