Restoring ﬁles

andfolderstoadifferentfolder

You c an also res

tore ﬁles and folders to different folders. When Data Protector Express restores the

object, it creates it in the new location. This is useful in order to prevent overwriting ﬁles and folders that

currently exist on disk.

To restore to a d

ifferent folder (also known as a move restore), right-click the ﬁle name on the Selection

page of the res

tore job and select Move command from the command bar. In the Select destination

for move opera

tion window, select a target location. Data Protector Express will m ove the ﬁle to the

destination

you select. If the d estination folder doesn’t exist, you can create it directly from the dialog.

You can also r

estore folders and volumes in new locations. The contents of these containers move with

them and are restored, along with the folder or volume, in the new location.

NOTE:

WhenyoumoveaversionontheSelection page of a restore job, the changes you make are only recorded

for that restore job. Only the current restore job will assign the ﬁle or folder the new location. When you

create a new restore job, you will see the ﬁles and folders in their original locations. Likewise, the Catalog

view will continue to display ﬁles in their original locations.

Selecting Devices

Selecting this link displays the Device view and allows you to select the device(s) to use in the job. See

Conﬁguration

Restore Job Settings To schedule a restore job to happen at a particular time, change the Sc hedule Type

to Runonspeciﬁcdayand then set the start time and date. The service will ensure that the restore

will happen at that time.

Verify Job Settings Like the restore job, you can schedule a verify to happen on a particular time as

well. Additionally, you can specify whether the job is a Full or a Quick verify. A full verify will compare

the contents of the backup media with the source ﬁles on disk. A quick verify will only validate that the

media can be read from end to end.
