Performing an HBase In-Place Restore Operation

You can restore HBase data to its original location on the same Hadoop instance that you backed up.

By default, when you perform a restore operation, the data is restored to its original location on the same cluster.

Procedure

1. From the CommCell Browser, expand Client Computers > pseudoclient > Big Data Apps > instance > backup_set.

2. In the right pane, right-click the default subclient, and then click Browse and Restore.

   The Browse and Restore Options dialog box appears.

3. Select the restore options:

   • To restore the most recent backup, select Latest Backup.

   • To restore to a point-in-time, select Time Range, and then type the date and time in the Start and End boxes.

4. Click View Content.

5. On the Browse page, determine what data to restore.

   The Browse page displays the namespace in the left pane.

6. Select the namespace that you want to restore, and then click Recover All Selected.

   The Restore Options for All Selected Items dialog box appears.

7. Optional: To further customize the restore operation, click Advanced.

   For more information about the Advanced Options, see Advanced Restore Options.

8. Click OK.

What to Do Next

If you selected the Recover and stage option, you must manually recover the database after the restore operation.
