Your target is standing in for your source because of failover, and users are accessing their

data from the target.

Your source is back online with a unique IP address and no network name conflicts.

The source and target can communicate with each other.

All applications on the source are stopped.

9.

From your target, confirm the Management Console is communicating with the source using the

new IP address.

a.

From the Management Console on the target, right-click the source and select Remove.

b.

Depending on your configuration, the source may be automatically inserted back into the

Management Console. If it is not, select Insert, Server. Specify the source server and click

OK.

10.

Begin your restoration process.

a.

From the Management Console, select Tools, Restoration Manager.

b.

Identify the Original Source machine. This is your source machine where the data originally

resided.

c.

Select the Restore From machine. This is the target machine where the copy of the data is

stored.

d.

Replication Set

contains the replication set information stored on the target machine (the

machine in Restore From). If no replication sets are available, the list will be blank. Select

the replication set that corresponds to the data that you need to restore.

e.

Select the Restore To machine. This is your temporary source that has the unique IP

address.

NOTE:

If your target is a cluster, you can specify just one node in the cluster and restore

only from that node. If you need to have the cluster functionality (Microsoft

failover from node to node) available during the restoration process, you will have

to create a resource, like you did for your original connection, for the restoration

process. Keep in mind when restoring, your target will function as your source,

sending data to the target, which will be your original or new source.
