Restoring from a Point in Time Rollback restores a snapshot of an entire file system or volume with minimal I/O. All the data in the snapshot is restored. Files and directories (folders) cannot be restored individually with this method.
Note: |
Point in Time Rollback is available only with the NetBackup Snapshot Client option. For more information, see the NetBackup Snapshot Client Administrator's Guide. |
To use the Point in Time Rollback option, you must restore the file system or volume to the original location on the client.
Restoring from a Point in Time Rollback returns a volume to a given point-in-time. Any data changes or snapshots that were made after that time are lost.
In a file system rollback (restore), NetBackup verifies that the primary file system does not contain any files that were created after the snapshot was made. Otherwise, the restore stops.
