The process for restoring from a remote backup copy is almost the same as that for restoring a local backup copy, except that the remote backup copy needs to be restored from the archived backup.
Before you begin
Prior to restoring from a remote backup copy, you must enter the following information on the remote filer:
options snapvault.access <filername>For more information on the options snapvault.access command, see the Data ONTAP documentation.
Steps
- Select the Exchange server from the Scope pane.
- If you don't have direct access to the SnapVault secondary, you must cancel the backup verification so that the remote backup will not mount on your local machine before the restore. To cancel the backup verification, complete the following steps:
- Click Restore.
- Click the Advanced options tab.
- Uncheck the Verify log sequence and database metadata before restore checkbox, then click Okay.
- Navigate to the Backup Verification Setting tab.
- Uncheck the Override database verification requirements for restore checkbox, then click Okay.
- In the Actions pane, select Restore wizard.
- In the Which Exchange Server Created the Backups page, select Restore from unmanaged media.
- Continue with the instructions provided in the Restore wizard.
- Click Finish.
