Restoring SQL Server Instances with filestream data fails if the database name is changed or relocated: If the database contains filestream data or files and you rename or relocate the database during the restore, an error message appears and the restore fails. On VSS-based restores, the message is “File <filestreamGroupName> cannot be restored to <originalFilestreamGroupDirectory>. Use WITH MOVE to identify a valid location for the file.” |
|
If you use the Copy Database Files to Target Directory feature, restoring database files from VSS-based backups that contain filestream data does not retain folder structure: Restoring a VSS-based backup of a database that contained sub-folders restores all files to the same folder, that is, the directory structure is “flattened.” Because the folder structure of the database is not recreated, a file-activation error appears when you try to access the database. |
|
If you use the Copy Database Files to Target Directory restore option, it might fail with VSS-related errors if the SQL Server client or server software is not running on the destination server. |
