You can restore Microsoft SQL Server databases in the ServiceNow Commvault application.
You can perform the following types of database restores:
- In-place restore, which restores the database to the server from which it was backed up.
- Out-of-place restore, which does one of the following:
- Restores the database to the server from which it was backed up, but allows you to rename the database and select a new file location for it.
