I'm trying to restore a single mail database into a recovery database on exchange 2010 using a differential backup from 10/04/2013. I have created a recovery database in exchange 2010 named RDB1. I have tried using the gui it fails 0 seconds into the restore with no error just a status of failed so im trying the command line.
a query of TSM backups returns
tdpexcc query tsm * /all

I have read the docs at http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tsminfo/v6/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.itsm.mail.exc.doc%2Fdpe_ref_cmd_restore.html and my syntax looks correct.
