Restore of Archive-Mailbox from Exchange via Flash Copy Manager

Swiss National Bank is not satisfied with the answer we got for PMR 05632,031,848. We were referred to Technote 1598343 ( http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21598343 ) which states that TDP Exchange / FlashCopy Manager does not support Individual Mailbox Restore (IMR) of Personal Archive mailboxes. As a work-around, the Technote recommends using Powershell cmdlet Restore-Mailbox. However, most of our service desk staff do not have enough time and skills to cope with such a complex command-line tool. They consider this to be a severe limitation of the product and they expect this functionality to be integrated into the MMC Plugin.
