Restoring data: an overview

Restoring is the process of copying data from a backup and applying transaction logs to the data to roll it forward to the target recovery point. A backup contains sufficient transaction log records to allow rolling forward the active transactions as part of restoring each backup. Each backup also contains sufficient transaction logs to roll back any uncommitted transactions to bring the database to a consistent, usable state. The process of rolling forward uncommitted transactions, if any, and bringing the database online is known as Recovery.

 
* 
NOTE: If your SQL Server Database Security Administrator or DBA has enabled TDE for one or more SQL Server Databases, before restoring a TDE-enabled database, the SQL Server Database Security Administrator or DBA must restore the required TDE certificate on the targeted SQL Server Instance.

* 
NOTE: Currently the Plug-in for SQL Server 12.2 does not support cross platform restores between Windows and Linux.

 

* 
IMPORTANT: Cross platform restores between Windows Operating System and Linux Operating System are not validated with Plug-in for SQL Server. If you performed an SQL Server Backup of a NetVault Client running on Windows Operating System, ensure that the Restore is directed to the same NetVault Client or a different NetVault Client that is also running SQL Server on Windows Operating System.

Similarly, if you performed a SQL Server Backup of a NetVault Client running on Linux Operating System, ensure that the Restore is directed to the same NetVault Client or a different NetVault Client that is also running SQL Server on Linux Operating System.
