Hello

if need all users: need restore one dc to lab /fsmo/ and with setup /m:recoverserver /iac... -restore exchanage server, and from exch backup need restore db
If only need exchange data: in lab create new dc with same AD name, and install exch /set same org name / and attach exchange db from backup, and connect disconnected mailbox to new user.

Hi Sudheer,

Thank you for your question.

For user database replication, we could install BDC to meet your requirement, we could refer to the following link:

For Exchange database replication, this is a single Exchange server, it is referred to local continuous replication(LCR), if I misunderstand, please be free to let me know. We could refer to the following link:

However, we didnt deploy LCR in production, we could install another server to perform another high availability(ccr,scc,scr), we could refer to the following link:

If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know. 

Best Regard,
