Selecting a restore method
• In the Method section, select one of the following methods for DS-Client to complete the restore
• Save: DS-Client will use an indirect restore method to prevent partially restored files from overwriting an existing file. DS-Client will restore files to a temporary location first. If the file is restored successfully, the original file will then be overwritten with the temporary file.
• Use buffer: DS-Client will restore files to the DS-Client buffer first and then transfer them to the restore destination. This method minimizes the duration for which the restore process will occupy the destination server.
• Fast: DS-Client will use a direct restore method, writing data as it is received.
NOTE: When the Fast method is selected, files in the destination location will be overwritten upon receipt of the first byte of data.
