Important notes about Enterprise Vault data restore
The Backup, Archive, and Restore user interface is used to restore Enterprise Vault data. You can restore any type of Enterprise Vault data from the Backup, Archive, and Restore user interface whose backup was taken from Enterprise Vault agent policy.
Review the following before you begin an Enterprise Vault restore:
The destination client for Enterprise Vault file system data restore should have the same version of Enterprise Vault installed as the client from where Enterprise Vault was backed up.
From the Backup, Archive, and Restore interface, you can change the destination client and policy type. Select > and make the necessary adjustments to the options in this dialog box as shown in the following image.
When you perform a disaster recovery of Enterprise Vault data, restore the directory database first. After you successfully restore the directory database, you can restore other Enterprise Vault components and partitions.
Veritas recommends that you restore the vault store database when you attempt to restore an open partition. In addition, you should restore the open partition when you attempt to restore the vault store database.
Veritas recommends that you restore individual components of Enterprise Vault one at a time.
For Enterprise Vault 7.5 or later, you must stop all Enterprise Vault services on Enterprise Vault servers when performing a restore.
See Stopping the administrative services on Enterprise Vault servers.
When you restore Enterprise Vault data you select the backup images that are displayed in the Backup, Archive, and Restore interface. These images are for Enterprise Vault file system data or Enterprise Vault SQL databases.
