Restoring a Cloud Copy

Prerequisites
  • Ensure that you have assigned a platinum protection policy or a custom policy to your database.

  • Ensure that the cloud copy is in an available state.

Procedure
  1. Click the main menu and then click Exchange Databases > + Database.
  2. On the master pane of the Databases screen, select a database.
  3. On the Copies tab, select and click the underlined value for Cloud Copy.

    Cloud Copy window appears. The Cloud Copy window lists all the snapshots with their name, status, and the time when the backup was taken.

  4. Select Action > Restore from the Cloud Copy window.
  5. Perform the following as per your selection in the Cloud Copy dialog:
    1. Select a Destination from Parent Volume, Another volume, or New Snapshot Set.
    2. For Destination type of Another volume, select and specify the Storage System name. Click Select Volumes option to search and specify a volume.
    3. For Destination type of New Snapshot Set, select the Restore Type as either Full or Express.
    4. For Restore Type of Express, select the Reference Snapshot Set as either Auto or Manual. For Manual, click Select to search and specify the reference snapshot set.
  6. Click Restore to restore.
    NOTE:
    • A volume type restore rolls back the parent volume with data present in the selected snapshot.

    • The database is automatically unmounted prior to a restore process and then remounted later.

    • A volume type restore to Another Volume rolls back the selected volume with data of the selected backup.

    • A volume type restore to a New Snapshot Set creates a snapshot set to the existing parent volume and restores the data in the newly created snapshot.
