Redirecting the restore of SharePoint 2003 document library (Web storage system-based) data to another document library

Before redirecting the restore of SharePoint 2003 document library data, the SharePoint Portal Server software must be installed on the target server. If any of the folders in the original document library do not exist in the destination document library, they will be created during the restore.

Caution:

When you restore SharePoint Portal document library data, any documents that exist in the target location and that have the same name as the documents being restored may be overwritten, depending on the Backup Exec overwrite properties for the restore job.
