Restore from selected backup

This option is selected by default. To restore data from the selected backup, leave this option selected.

Restore from latest backup

Select this option to restore data from most recent backup that was performed using a particular Backup Selection Set regardless of which saveset you use to create the restore job.

The following example illustrates the difference between these two options:
a
Create a test directory and create a Backup Selection Set “SelectionSet-1” to back up the test directory.
b
Create a file named “first.txt” in the test directory.
c
Perform a Full Backup (TestBackup1) using “SelectionSet-1.”
d
Delete “first.txt” and create a file named “last.txt” in the test directory.
e
Perform a second Full Backup (TestBackup2) using “SelectionSet-1.”
f
Restore TestBackup1 using the Restore from selected backup option. This job restores the file “first.txt.”
g
Restore TestBackup1 using the Restore from latest backup option. This job restores the file “last.txt.”
