Restoring an Enterprise Vault open partition

When you restore an open partition, Backup Exec automatically restores the partition's associated vault store database in the same restore job. By including the vault store database, Backup Exec maintains synchronization between the two components.

Note:

Restoring an open partition means that the partition that you select for restore is currently open on the destination Enterprise Vault server.

After the restore completes, you must run the Enterprise Vault recovery tool. The recovery tool maintains synchronization between the vault store database and its associated closed partitions.

See your Enterprise Vault documentation.
