NetVault Plug-in for SnapVault Manager 11.4.5 - User Guide

Performing a restore

Unlike the backup procedure, the restore procedure for the Plug‑in for SnapVault Manager is similar to all other NetVault Backup Plug-ins. Restores are performed from the NetVault Backup Restore window. You can restore files, directories, or drives from the snapshots taken using the SV Primary Relationships.

1
In the Navigation pane, click Create Restore Job, and then click Restore Snapshots.
2
Open the NetVault Backup Server, and in the list of plug-ins, open SnapVault Manager to list all added SV Primaries.
3
To list all configured Relationships, open the applicable SV Primary.
4
To list the available snapshots, open the applicable Relationship node.
5
To display a snapshot’s contents (for example, drives, mount points, directories, and files), open the applicable snapshot.
6
Browse through selections tree, and select the items that you want to restore.
 
* 
NOTE: Item omissions are not supported with this plug-in (for example, selecting a root item, and marking individual children for omission). If a root item is opened to display its children, selecting the root item also selects all the children. Access to the children is disallowed unless the root item is cleared.
7
Click Next.
8
Select or create the Schedule Set and Advanced Options Set.
For more information about these sets, see the Quest NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide.
9
To submit the job for scheduling, click Submit.
You can monitor the job progress from the Job Status page and view the logs from the View Logs page. For more information about these functions, see the Quest NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide.

8
Complete Step 7 through Step 9 in Performing a restore.

IMPORTANT:  
•
Upon completion of the restore, the relationship will be restarted and future updates of it occurs as originally set up.

Only the root node of a relationship must first be selected before the Options command is accessed. Otherwise, the Restart Relationship option are not available.

Failure to restart a Relationship successfully before initiating a Full Restore of it results in its loss and the need to completely recreate it.
