4.5.3 Restoring Data

This section describes how to restore a volume or other data that has been backed up.


4.5.3.1 Restoring an entire volume

All of the data from a volume that has been saved with the snapshot high-speed backup can be restored using either GUI operations or commands. For information on the operation method using GUI, refer to "Restore" on "Perform a Snapshot Backup" in the "ETERNUS SF AdvancedCopy Manager GUI User's Guide".
For information on the operation method using commands, refer to swstrestore (Restore execution command)
To check restore status, use swstreststat (Restore execution status display command)

Note

If restoring for a general file system, stop operations.


    4.5.3.2 Restoring an individual file

    Restore an individual file as shown below. Note that you cannot restore an individual file from the GUI client.

    1. Using swstdrvset (Drive letter allocation command), assign a drive letter to a backup volume.

    2. Either execute the COPY command on the command prompt window or copy the file using Windows Explorer from the backup volume.

    3. When the copy is complete, use swstdrvunset (Drive letter deallocation command), to remove assignment of that drive letter from the backup volume.
