Performing an FLR on Windows

You can restore a file from a savepoint by accessing the File Level Restore command in the My Repositories view. FLR is accessible regardless of how the savepoints are sorted. You can right-click the savepoint in the Working Repository pane to select the command or you can click to select the savepoint and then click the FLR icon on the toolbar.

There is no need to copy or recreate the contents of the disk. The data remains compressed. When you make an FLR request, only the relevant files are moved from the repository to the designated computer.

A key component of the vRanger FLR is the vRanger catalog functionality. While you can use FLR without cataloging enabled, it is much easier to find a preferred file by using a catalog search than through manual browsing of savepoints.

 
* 
NOTE: If the volume was created on Windows Server ® 2012 or later, the vRanger machine must also use Windows Server 2012 or later to complete FLR. Older systems may not show data on GPT disks.

VMs with dynamic disks are not supported for FLR.

Performing an FLR using Catalog Search

Cataloging lets you search and browse savepoints for files inside the backup archives. Cataloging must be enabled at the start of the backup job to function, and also enabled globally in the Configuration Options dialog box.

Catalog Search has the following parameters:

•
When cataloging a full backup, all files in the system are stored in the database.
•
When cataloging an incremental backup, only the files that were modified since the last backup are stored in the database.
•
When cataloging a differential backup, only the files that were modified since the last full backup are stored in the database.
 
* 
NOTE: When it comes to reporting the status of a backup task, cataloging is not considered a critical function. The cataloging portion of the task can fail, and the task is still considered successful.
To perform FLR using Catalog Search:
1
On the main vRanger UI, navigate to the My Repositories pane, and then select the repository in which you want to search.
2
Do one of the following to start the Catalog Search function:
•
Click the Catalog Search Icon .
•
On the Menu Bar, click the Tools menu, and then click Catalog Search.
The Catalog Search & Browse dialog box appears.
Entering a search string in the Catalog Search Criteria field searches all repositories and savepoints for the string.
3
To refine the scope of the search further, click Advanced.
The Advanced option lets you limit the search to a repository or VM (savepoint).
4
Select the repository or VM you want to search, enter the search string, and click Search.
5
Select the preferred savepoint, and click FLR for File Level Restore, or Restore for the Full Restore.
 
* 
NOTE: Catalog searching supports the traditional wildcard character (*) in any position. The search string can be as short or as long as you prefer; however, the shorter the string, the longer the search takes. SQL Server® Express is limited to one CPU and 1 GB of RAM; a short search string — for instance, “dot” — could result in very slow searching, and SQL Server Express could run out of memory. To minimize performance issues during Catalog Search, make the search string as specific as possible.
