Renaming and relocating data during restore

To restore a file or directory without overwriting the existing copy, you can rename or relocate the item during restore.

3
In the Rename/Relocate dialog box, provide the following information:
Rename: Type a new name for the selected item. When specifying the filename, include the extension. Otherwise, the file is restored with no extension. For example, when renaming the file “old.txt,” if you type “new” in the Rename box, the file is restored without the “.txt” extension.
Relocate: Type the full path to the new restore location.
NOTE: To rename an item without changing its location, use only the Rename option. To change the restore location without changing the name, use only the Relocate option. Use both options if you want to rename the item and change its location.

You cannot rename the server and Mount Target node.

You can relocate an entire server backup to a different Nutanix Files server only when the destination server has the same Mount Targets as in the selected saveset. If the names of the Mount Targets on the destination server are different from the Mount Targets in the selected saveset, rename the Mount Targets in the saveset to match the Mount Target names on the server.

When relocating an individual directory or file, specify the full network path; for example, \\<server name>\<Mount Target>\<desired path on the Mount Target>. The server name is the name with which the Nutanix Files server is configured during plug-in configuration.

Click OK to close the dialog box.

Restoring data to an alternate client

During restore, you can relocate a backup to an alternate client. This procedure can be useful during a server migration or disaster recovery operation.

Before you start the restore procedure, verify that the following requirements are met:

2
In the Target Client list, select the restore target.
Alternatively, click Choose, and in the Choose the Target Client dialog box, select the restore target. Click OK to close the dialog box.

 

NOTE: You can also use the Rename and Relocate options while restoring data to an alternate client. For more information about these options, see Renaming and relocating data during restore.
