Performing a manual FLR

The dialog box for this method of restoring files is made up of the following three panes:

•
Savepoint pane: In this area, all the files or folders connected to a savepoint are nested. When you click the file or folder that you want to restore, the path is listed above it.
•
Destination pane: This pane includes a tree structure of all possible destinations for the restored file or folder you select.
•
Restore Status pane: This area of the dialog box contains data after the restore process starts. It includes a column that indicates the percentage of the job that has completed. The dialog box also features a Stop link that, when clicked, ends the restore process. When a job is stopped or it has completed, a View in Explorer link appears.
To perform a manual FLR:
1
In the main vRanger UI, click My Repositories.
2
In the Working Repository pane, right-click the savepoint for which you want an FLR and select File Level Restore.
3
In the Select the Files/Folders to Restore pane, expand the archive to view the file structure.
4
Select the file or files to recover.
5
In the Destination pane, select the destination to which the selected files should be recovered.
The Destination pane shows the Windows Explorer view for the machine on which vRanger is installed.
 
* 
CAUTION: vRanger does not check for previous versions of the files you are restoring. Files restored using FLR overwrite any previous files of the same name in the restore destination.
6
Click Restore.
7
In the Restore Status pane, view the status of the restore activity and the value in the Percent Finished column.
8
Make sure that the status is Finished and Percent Finished is 100%.
9
To view the restored file or folder, click the View in Explorer link.

Performing an FLR on Linux

FLR from Linux® server savepoints requires that a vRanger virtual appliance (VA) is deployed and configured for Linux FLR. For instructions on deploying and configuring the vRanger VA, see the Quest vRanger Installation/Upgrade Guide.

After you configure the vRanger VA, the FLR process for a Linux VM is the same as the manual FLR process — meaning the process not using a catalog search — for a Windows® VM. For more information, see Performing a manual FLR.

Linux FLR limitations

There are several limitations and requirements that apply to FLRs from Linux® VMs.

 
* 
NOTE: The following summarizes the limitations; for more information, see the Quest vRanger Installation/Upgrade Guide.
•
Linux: FLR from Linux servers requires the use of the vRanger VA. For more information, see Performing an FLR on Linux.
•
Linux: Not all Linux file systems are supported for FLR. For a list of supported Linux platforms and file systems, see the Quest vRanger Installation/Upgrade Guide.
•
Permissions: vRanger requires you to recover the Linux files to an intermediate Windows® machine. When you recover Linux files to a Windows machine, you lose the file permissions.
•
Source VM Configuration: The source VM properties need to show the operating system (OS) type as Linux. If this setting is not configured properly, vRanger does not identify the savepoint as a Linux VM.

Restoring from manifest

vRanger offers the ability to restore a savepoint after it has been moved from a repository. This feature allows for greater flexibility when restoring a file or server after it has been moved to long-term tape backups. You may also use the Restore from Manifest feature to restore a server after transporting the savepoint to a secondary location.

You may perform three different operations when restoring from a manifest file:

•
Performing a full restore from manifest for VMware VMs
•
Performing a full restore from manifest for a physical machine
•
Performing FLR from manifest

Performing a full restore from manifest for VMware VMs

Each savepoint contains a manifest file that can be used to restore the savepoint without access to the vRanger database. If the vRanger machine is lost, you may install a fresh installation of vRanger, and restore savepoints using this manifest file.

To perform a full restore from manifest for VMs, complete the following tasks:

* 
NOTE: The procedures in this topic apply to restoring from a VMware VM savepoint manifest. For information on restoring a Hyper-V VM from manifest, see Performing a full restore from manifest for Hyper-V VMs. For information on restoring a physical server from a savepoint manifest, see Performing a full restore from manifest for a physical machine.
