This section provides information about the restore options for storage accounts. You can restore the File Share to the original or an alternate location.


πŸ“ Note:

The lease property of the file will not be restored.


Procedure

  1. Log in to the Management Console.

  2. Select the workload from the Protect menu. Note that if the All Organizations menu is enabled, you have to first select an organization that has your NAS device and then select the workload.

  3. From the device-specific navigation pane on the left, select the NAS device.

  4. In the right pane, click the NAS share (storage account) from which you want to restore data.

  5. From the share details page, in the Configured Backup Sets section, select the backup set to be restored from, and then click Restore.

  6. On the Restore page, do the following:

    • Select the recovery point that you want to restore from.

    • In the folder hierarchy, browse for the file(s) to be restored. Select the file to be restored, and then click Restore.


πŸ“ Note

​The restore view does not display files/folders in alphabetical order. You must scroll and search for the required file/folder.


A single click of expanding a particular folder will load a total of 2048 files/folders. If there are more than 2048 files/folders, then the Load more option will be visible to display the next set of results in that folder.

7. On the Restore to Location window, do the following:

  • On the Restore Target tab, select one of the following and click Next:

    1. Restore to original location: Select to restore data to original location.

    2. Restore to alternate location: Select to restore data to a specified location. Provide the following information:


      ​

Field

Description

Specify NAS Device

Specify the subscription that you have added as a device to restore.

Specify Share

Specify the target storage account in which you want to restore.

Specify Path

Specify the target File Share in which you want to restore.

Select the path with the pattern: <FileSharename>/<dir>. This means that if the target storage account has a File Share with the name <FileSharename>, everything will be stored here. If the target file share name does not exist, create a new File Share.

Specify NAS Proxy Pool

Select the backup proxy pool, and Druva can determine a proxy from this pool to restore data to the alternate location.

  • On the Restore Settings tab, select one of the following:

    • Always overwrite

    • Overwrite if original is older

    • Restore and move original to .orig

    • Always skip

8. Click Finish.

After clicking Finish, Druva initiates restore pre-checks. These checks look for issues that can cause your restore job to fail before the restore has even started. Druva does not initiate a restore job if the restore pre-checks identify any issues. You must fix any identified issues before restoring your data.
