Considerations for restoring from D-NAS backups
You can use the NetBackup web UI to restore individual files or directories, or a volume.
Points to remember before restoring:
Original location restore is not supported by the NAS-Data-Protection policy.
The destination client for the restoration must be a NetBackup host. For example, a media server or backup host.
If you select either of the following rename options, ensure that you change the destination path:
Rename hard links.
Rename soft links.
Checkpoint restart is currently not supported for multi-stream restores.
Multi-stream restore is supported from NetBackup-created backup images. It is not supported for restore from snapshot or replica copies. To restore from a snapshot or replica copy, specify the number of restore streams as 1.
For a NAS volume, if there are multiple copies of NetBackup-created backup images, then NetBackup restores data from the first non-snapshot or non-replica copy. To restore from a specific backup copy, set that copy as the primary copy in the NetBackup catalog.
