Restore |
Restores a component to its original location.
- Rename and relocate database: For SQL Server
databases only, the Restore action includes an option to rename and
relocate database components. If the database component is stored
on an SMB file share, it can be renamed within the original SMB file
share location, but cannot be relocated.
- Do Not Recover Database: For SQL Server
databases only, the Restore action includes an option to restore without
recovering the database.
- Authorize Updating Clustered Storage Volume (CSV) Storage
Owner: For Windows Server 2008 R2 CSV components (Local
Volume or Hyper‐V) only, the Restore action includes an option to
update the CSV owner.
NOTE:Restore is not available for Local Volume and VMware Datastores
restore points. NOTE:Each time the Restore action restores
backup set data, Replay Manager maps the backup data to the number
of LUNs required for the restore. When the restore completes, the
volumes remain mapped until the Replays expire or the restore point
is unimported. NOTE:(VMware Virtual Machines restore points
only) Under some conditions, restore operations do not retain the
thin‐provisioned state of the component; that is, a restore operation
may allocate all virtual disk space, resulting in greater than expected
space consumption. |
Resync |
Allows for a faster recovery from a restore point by resetting
the Storage Center volumes to the appropriate Replay. |
Make Writable |
For Windows extensions only. Makes an exposed restore point
writable. Making a restore point writable removes it from Replay Manager
control. Replays corresponding to restore points that have been made
writable must be managed using Storage Center. |
Unmanage |
For VMware extensions only. Removes an exposed restore point
from management by Replay Manager Explorer. Unmanaged Replays must
be managed by Storage Center. |
Expose |
- For Windows: Exposes the restore point
to the specified drive or mount path. If the component is stored on
an SMB file share, the SMB expose path is automatically generated
by Replay Manager and cannot be changed.
- For VMware: Exposes the restore point to
the specified datacenter, host, and name. Use the Unmanage Restore
Point option to remove the exposed restore point from Replay Manager
control. Unmanaged Replays must be managed from Storage Center.
|
Unexpose |
- For Windows: Available on Microsoft Windows
Server 2008 and later operating systems only. Unexposes a non‐writable
exposed restore point.
- For VMware: Unexposes a restore point that
has not been removed from management.

Add Notes |
Add a note to a restore point. The note text is displayed on
the Restore Point Details tab. The note is
also displayed in the output from a copy operation. |
Edit Notes |
Edit a note for a restore point. The note text is displayed
on the Restore Point Details tab. The note
is also displayed in the output from a copy operation. |
Unimport |
Available on Microsoft Windows Server 2008 and later operating
systems only. Undoes the import of a transportable restore point that
was previously Restored or Exposed. The restore point can then be
restored or exposed to the same server or transported to another server. |
Delete Restore Point |
Deletes the selected restore point and removes the corresponding
Replay(s) from the Storage Center. NOTE:Because a backup set may have
multiple volumes, there may be more than one Replay for a given restore
point. |
Force Keep / Allow Auto-Deletion |
Toggles between Force Keep and Allow Auto-Deletion.
- Force Keep: Sets the retention flag of
a restore point to Never Expire. These restore points will not be
automatically deleted based on the backup set’s retention policy.
- Allow Auto-Deletion: Removes the Force Keep flag from a Replay, allowing the Replay to
be automatically deleted based on the backup set’s retention policy.
|
Transport to Server |
For Windows extensions only: Transports a restore point to
another server. Once a restore point is transported, it is removed
from the source server. On the target server, the transported restore
point is available under the Local Volumes extension, regardless of
its source extension. Restore points can be transferred only to a
server compatible with the operating system of the source server. NOTE:Transport to Server is not available for components
stored on SMB file shares or VMware extensions components. |
