Use this dialog box to control how the specified data is to be restored.
Restore ACLs
Specifies that the data will be restored with the original ACLs and therefore its original security attributes. Clear this option to restore without ACLs and consequently the data assumes the ACLs of the parent directory.Data in device node
Specifies that Unix raw devices can be restored to either another raw device or a file. When selected, this activates the Unconditional Overwrite option, which is required for raw device restores to complete successfully.
Unconditionally overwrite only if target is a DataArchiver stub
If selected, this option will unconditionally overwrite a DataArchiver stub during restore.
Overwrite
-
Overwrite if file in backup is newer
If selected, this option will overwrite the existing file with the file that was backed up/archived to the media provided the backed up/archived file is newer than the existing file.
-
Unconditional Overwrite
Specifies whether the restored data is unconditionally written to the specified location.
If cleared:
-
Files/directories whose names are the same as those in the restore path and where the backed up data is as old or older are not restored.
-
Files/directories whose names are the same as those in the restore path and where the backed up data is newer are restored.
-
Files/directories whose names are different from those in the restore path are restored.
Note
Avoid using this option whenever you run a Restore by Jobs. Otherwise, an older version of the files might be retrieved.
-
-
Restore only if target exists
If selected, this option will only restore files that currently exist in the restore path. Files that exist on the media but not in the restore path will not be restored.
Restore Destination
Destination Client/Computer/Server
Displays the name of the client computer to which the selected data will be restored. To change the destination computer, select one from the list. The list includes clients:
-
Which are established as clients within the CommCell.
-
Clients with Operating Systems that support the cross-platform restore operation from this client. (Refer to the topic titled Cross Platform Restore Operations in Books Online for additional information.)
By default, data is restored to the same computer from which it was backed up.
Restore to Same Folder
Specifies whether the restore operation will restore data to the same folder from which it was backed up in the Destination Computer. (Clear this option to restore to a different path and activate the Destination folder box.)
Browse
Click to select a path for the Destination folder.
Preserve Source Paths
Specifies the action taken when the data is restored to another destination. The options are available only when the Restore to Same Paths option is cleared.
Preserve n levels from end of source path
Specifies whether the restore operation must keep the specified number of levels at the end of source path of the selected data. For example, if the selected data is Documents\Memos\Sales, this option is set to 1 and the Destination folder is temp, the data will be restored as \temp\Sales.
Note
However, if this option is used to restore a file in a path that contains any valid wildcard expression (e.g., Documents\**\Sales), the default value of 1 for the option cannot be changed. Therefore, only the last found occurrence of the file is restored, and the restores for all the other occurrences of the file are overwritten.
Advanced
Click to select additional restore options.Save As Script
Click to open the Save As Script dialog, which allows you to save this operation and the selected options as a script file (in XML format). The script can later be executed from the Command Line Interface using qoperation execute command.
When you save an operation as a script, each option in the dialog will have a corresponding XML parameter in the script file. When executing the script, you can modify the value for any of these XML parameters as per need.
