PowerProtect Data Manager 19.9 Microsoft Application Agent SQL Server User Guide
Performing SQL Server table-level recovery to a virtual machine
To recover table-level data, you can use the SSMS plug-in to first mount the backup, and then use ItemPoint for Microsoft SQL Server to browse and restore the tables.
Table-level restore operations mount the application-aware virtual machine image backup on the target virtual machine.
The Microsoft application agent sends a request to the PowerProtect Data Manager appliance to mount the selected backup.
When the backup is mounted, the VMDK images from the virtual machine image backup are added to the target-virtual machine and assigned mount points.
The backup is mounted with the PowerProtect Data Manager appliance for 4 hours by default. The valid range for the mount timeout is between 1 and 24 hours, after which the mounted backup must be dismounted.
