Restore Options
Detailed Log
Records all files that are restored.
Skip Pre/Post
Skips the Pre/Post restore process. Uncheck to display the Pre/Post button.
Pre/Post
Opens the Pre & Post Execution screen (see "Pre & Post Execution screen").
Leave Database(s) in ‘RESTORING’ state
(Microsoft SQL Server backup sets only. Not valid for ‘dump file only’ restores.)
Off: (DEFAULT) The database will be brought online after the restore.
On: The database will be left in ‘RESTORING’ mode to allow users to continue performing restore operations on the restored database. Select this check box if you plan to restore data from a Classic Microsoft SQL Server backup set that is based on the Transaction Log Only database backup policy to the same database(s) afterwards.
Local Storage Restore Options
This section only appears if this backup set has data stored in Local Storage and off-site on DS-System. DS-Client always tries to restore from Local Storage first, but these options deal with the specific scenario where the DS-Client also needs to restore some data from DS-System.
(Default) Stop, if connection to DS-System not available when needed.
Continue, even if connection to DS-System not available.
Try to connect to DS-System first. If connection fails, stop.
Microsoft Exchange database restore options
Mount database after restore
Check to automatically mount the database after restore.
Force allow overwrite database
Check to automatically set the Microsoft Exchange Server’s “allow restore to overwrite database” parameter before restoring the database.
Existing file options
Delete (default): Delete all of the existing files in the restore directory.
Keep: Keep all existing files in the restore directory.
Rename: Renames the existing files, until all restore items are successfully restored. This takes more space, but avoids problems of failed restores (if a restore fails without this option, the Microsoft Exchange Server will not function). In case of failure, original files will be renamed back and the Exchange database will be mounted.
