Restoring Lustre Data Out of Place to a Different Folder on the Same Lustre Cluster

You can restore Lustre (File System) data out of place to a different folder on the same Lustre cluster.

Prerequisites

To perform out-of-place Lustre file system restores, you must select the Restore ACLs check box in the Restore Options dialog box.

Procedure

  1. From the CommCell Browser, expand Client Computers > pseudo-client > Big Data Apps > instance.

  2. In the right pane, right-click the subclient on which you want to perform a restore operation, and then click Browse and Restore.

    The Browse and Restore Options dialog box appears.

  3. Click View Content.

  4. Select the data that you want to restore, and then click Recover All Selected.

    The Restore Options for All Selected Items dialog box appears.

  5. On the Restore Options - General tab, specify the out-of-place restore options:

    1. Clear the Restore to same folder check box.

    2. Under Specify Destination Path, type the path that you want to restore the data to.

    3. Optional: Select Preserve Source Paths options to exclude files and folders from the source path.

  6. On the Restore Options - Job Initiation tab, specify whether you want to run the job immediately or to schedule it.

Result

The files are restored to the destination folder that you specified. If the destination folder does not exist, then a folder with the name that you specified is created and the data is restored to that folder.

Examples

  • If you select the path Documents/Users/Memos/Sales, and you want to restore data only from the Sales folder, set the Preserve <n> level from end of source path option to 1.

  • If you select the path Documents/Users/Memos/Sales, and you want to restore the data from the Memos and Sales folders, set the Remove <n> level from beginning of source path option to 2.
