NOTE
With some database integrations, you can set the changed device as a
default restore device for all Data Protector integration restore sessions
(regardless of the type of integration), by clicking the
Save as default
button.
Finding Needed Media
To get a list of the media on which your data is stored, go to the
Media
property page after you select data for restore.
You can also find the media needed for the restore by clicking the
Needed
Media
button in the
Start Session/Preview Session
dialog box. This
dialog box appears when you start or preview the restore.
Previewing and Starting a Restore
Ensure that the media are loaded properly before starting the restore.
Otherwise, the media will not be detected.
If restoring objects selected in the
Source
property page of your restore,
use the
Start
or
Preview
buttons.
If also restoring objects selected in the Scoping Pane, click
Start
Restore
or
Preview Restore
from the
Actions
menu.
Aborting a Restore
Aborting a restore session stops the restore. Data processed before the
session was aborted is restored to the specified location.
To abort a restore session, click
Abort
in the
Actions
menu.
You can also abort restore sessions in the Data Protector
Monitor
context.
Restoring Disk Images
A disk image restore is a sector-by-sector restore of a disk image backup.
Data Protector restores a complete image of the disk that was backed up
(as a disk image) at a certain point in time. This method is particularly
fast. It is available for Windows and UNIX systems.
