NOTE: During a restore, run the process using the node for the Virtual Client. Do not use one of the nodes for an individual client in the cluster to run the process. If you open or expand one of the nodes and drill down through the hierarchy, you might see a dimmed SQL Server Instance identified as local. While the system might use this instance in maintaining log information, do not run any processes at this level. |

If you complete multiple sequential restores of the primary replica and you want to omit the primary replica after the first restore, Dell recommends that you complete the Enter the NetVault Backup Client Name on the AlwaysOn Availability Groups Primary Node field. |

Unless you want to use SQL Server Management Studio to add the primary replica to the group, select the Add Primary Database to the AlwaysOn Availability Group After Restore check box. |
• |
Ensure that the secondary replicas are always removed from the group before restoring the primary replica. You can do this manually using SQL Server Management Studio or by selecting the Remove Database Secondary Copies from the AlwaysOn Availability Group Before Restore check box. |
• |
If you select With NO RECOVERY for the Restore Type of the primary replica, do not select the Add Primary Database to the AlwaysOn Availability Group After Restore check box. You must complete the recovery before you can add the database to the group. |

In the AlwaysOn Availability Groups section, select the applicable check boxes: |
• |
Restore to the following AlwaysOn Availability Group: Enter the name of the group. |
• |
Enter the NetVault Backup Client Name on the AlwaysOn Availability Groups Primary Node (optional): Enter the name of the client that is running on the primary node. If you enter a name for a different node, the restore fails. If you are unsure which client is running on the primary node, use SQL Server Management Studio to determine which node is the primary node in the group. |
IMPORTANT: Both fields are optional; however, if you choose to use these fields, Dell recommends that you complete both. If you complete one field and the plug-in is unable to determine the name for the other field, the restore fails. If you enter the correct information and the database is already part of the group, but you do not select the Remove Primary Database from the AlwaysOn Availability Group Before Restore check box, the restore fails. If the database is not part of the group, you specify an incorrect name, and the plug-in is unable to check that the client resides on the primary replica, the plug-in restores the database. However, you cannot add the database to the group. If a failover to a different node occurs after the restore job is run and you have entered the primary client and group names, update the information stored in Restore Options to reflect the name of the new client. Otherwise, subsequent runs of the same restore job fail. |
