SUMMARY
In Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 and earlier, the restore process created a registry subkey named RestoreInProgress, which is located under the following registry key:

HKEY_Local_Machine\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeIS

The function of the RestoreInProgress registry key is to keep information about the restore environment during the restore process. For example, the RestoreInProgress registry key keeps track of the Exchange Server transaction log files that need to be replayed.

In Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server, this information is no longer stored in the registry, but is kept in a file called Restore.env. This file is located in the Log Path folder selected during restore, and gets updated during incremental backups. In other words, the log file range is updated with all transaction logs restored in previous restore sessions.
