Restore Manager Destination Options
The Destination options determine how the directory structure is created on the destination when files are copied or restored. They also determine which files (if any) can be overwritten.
Directory Structure Options
Select one of the following methods Arcserve Backup should use to create directories on your destination.
- Do Not Create the Base Directories--(default) Do not create the base directory A base directory is the parent directory to the data, such as a file, selected for restore. For example, if you specify restore c:\xyz\file1 and c:\xyz\file2, the base directory for file1 and file2 is xyz. When you select a directory for restore, its base directory is the directory itself. For example, if you specify restore c:\xyz\folder1, the base directory is folder1 itself. on the destination path, but create all subdirectories below the source base directory. A base directory is considered the first directory selected in the source path.
- Create Directories from the Base--Create the destination path beginning from the base directory A base directory is the parent directory to the data, such as a file, selected for restore. For example, if you specify restore c:\xyz\file1 and c:\xyz\file2, the base directory for file1 and file2 is xyz. When you select a directory for restore, its base directory is the directory itself. For example, if you specify restore c:\xyz\folder1, the base directory is folder1 itself..
- Create Entire Path from the Root--Create the entire source path (except the root drive or volume name) on the destination. No files from any parent directories are restored. Only the directory path to the base directory A base directory is the parent directory to the data, such as a file, selected for restore. For example, if you specify restore c:\xyz\file1 and c:\xyz\file2, the base directory for file1 and file2 is xyz. When you select a directory for restore, its base directory is the directory itself. For example, if you specify restore c:\xyz\folder1, the base directory is folder1 itself. is created on the destination.
- File Conflict Resolution Options
-
Select the method Arcserve Backup should use when there are files on the destination disk that have the same name as files being copied from the source. The default is Overwrite All Files.
- Overwrite All Files--Restore all source files to the destination regardless of conflicting file names. The files from the source overwrite existing files on the destination.
- Rename Files--Copy the source file to the destination with the same file name but a different extension. The format of the renamed extension will vary based upon the file system that is present on the target partition.
- If the length of file name is more than 251 characters, Arcserve Backup truncates the file name at 251 characters and appends '.__0' to the file name, after the first restore. For all subsequent restores, Arcserve Backup appends '.__1', '.__2', and so on to the truncated file name.
- If the length of the file name is less than or equal to 251 characters and has a file extension, Arcserve Backup replaces the last character of the file extension with the character 1 (for example, filename.tx1). For subsequent restores, Arcserve Backup replaces the last character of the file extension with the character 2, 3, and so on. After the 10th restore, Arcserve Backup replaces the last two characters of the file extension with 10, 11, 12, and so on (for example, filename.t10). After the 100th restore, Arcserve Backup replaces the last three characters of the file extension with 100, 101, 102, and so on (for example, filename.100). After the 999th restore, Arcserve Backup cannot rename the file extension, which causes the restore to fail. If the length of the file name is less than or equal to 251 characters, and it does not have a file extension, Arcserve Backup appends '.__0' to the end of the file name. If Arcserve Backup appends '.__0' to the file name after the first restore, the renaming process appends two characters after the 10th restore (for example, filename._10), and after the 100th restore, the renaming process appends three characters to the file name (for example, filename.100). After the 999th restore, Arcserve Backup cannot rename the file name, which causes the restore to fail.
- Skip Existing Files--Do not restore a source file if a file with the same name already exists on the destination.
- Overwrite with Newer Files Only--Only restore source files whose modification date is later than the modification date of the file with the same name on the destination. Source files whose modification date is earlier are not copied to the destination.
- VMS File Version Options
-
The following options indicate how Arcserve Backup should act when restoring VMS files that have the same names and version numbers as the files in the target restore directory.
- Create New File Version--Arcserve Backup will restore all files as new versions of the original. The files in the target directory will not be affected.
- Replace Current File Version--If a file in the target directory has the same name and version number as a file in the restore data, Arcserve Backup will overwrite the file.
- Restore File Version--If a file in the target directory has the same name and version number as a file in the restore data, Arcserve Backup will not restore the file. All other files will be restored with their original names and version numbers.
