Recovering Data

When you need to recover data from the cloud to on-premises, you can use the Data Recovery wizard.  To restore data, you must have an existing Cloud Backup and Replication job that has been replicating that data.

Note: You can recover data from a running job.  However, if you plan to restore the data to the original location, you should stop the job first.

To recover data:

1.Open Peer Management Center.

2.In the Jobs view, identify the Cloud Backup and Replication job that replicated the data you want to restore.

3.Right-click the job name, and then select Recover Volume/File(s) from the menu.

The Recovery Wizard opens and displays the Volume to Recover page.  The Storage Device field on the page is a read-only field that displays the name of the source storage device.

4.Select the volume that was the source of the replicated data from the Volume drop-down list.
