You can restore the backup jobs of data and logs or multiple backup jobs at a time directly to a location on a disk using CommCell console without the intervention of Sybase application. This is useful for restoring multiplexed data on the same media. The data from different backup jobs are passed back to the client so that all of the interleaved backup jobs can be restored in parallel. You can restore the data associated with a specific backup job (s) such as full, incremental, logs, etc., in parallel streams. You can also submit multiple restore jobs from full and incremental backups.
