The destination acts as the root of the backup that you are restoring. You specify a different restore destination if you are moving items. For example, if you created a backup and then installed multiple volumes on the filer, when you perform a restore, you might specify a different volume or directory from the original.
If you do not specify a restore destination, the files are restored into the locations from which they were backed up.
Note
