Disk/Partition Recovery
Disk/Partition Recovery allows you to restore an individual disk/partition from the backed-up physical/virtual Windows machine to the BDRSuite Backup Server. Once the disk/partition is attached to the target machine, you will be alerted to manually reboot the machine to update the configurations.
Step 1: Choose the Host and Restore type
Choose a Host that you wish to restore.
Now, select the Disk/ Partition Recovery option and click Next.
Step 2: Choose the Restore point
Select a restore point to restore the backup data. BDRSuite Backup Server retains the restore points as per the retention policy you have selected for the backup job.
Full backup and Incremental backup restore points are viewed in the dropdown box structure.
Each incremental restore point is a virtual full backup that makes full data recovery possible in each step. This makes the restoration process easier without having to recover a full backup and all the previous increments.
If the restore point is denoted with symbols (d), (w), (m), (+P) at the end, it indicates the following:
- Daily Merge (d)
- Weekly Merge (w)
- Monthly Merge (m)
- Persistent boot changes (+P)
Daily, Weekly, and Monthly merges take place based on the retention policies you have configured.
If you select Restore version time-stamp with (+P), then you have enabled the option to ’Include persistent boot changes during restore’ option that includes the changes you performed in the VM/Host during the instant boot restore process.
Step 3: Choose the Disk/ Partitions to Restore
For Disk level Recovery select the source disk and the destination/target disk of the BDRSuite Backup Server,
In the case of Partition level Recovery, select the source partition and the destination/target drive in the BDRSuite Backup Server.
Note: Disk/Drive restore to OS volume is not supported.
Step 4: Review & Restore
Review the recovery configuration you have selected and click on Restore to start restoring the backup data.
On successful recovery, you can find the backup disk is attached to the target VM. Then, Navigate to the Recovery tab, click on the report icon next to the backup job you have restored, and choose Restore Report to view the recovery details.
Note: The destination drive or the target disk selected once formatted to perform restore and cannot be recovered.
