Restoring Application Items

You can use Veeam Explorers to restore application items from backups created with Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows. Veeam Backup & Replication lets you restore items and objects from the following applications:

• Microsoft Active Directory
• Microsoft Exchange
• Microsoft SharePoint
• Microsoft SQL Server
• Oracle

The procedure of application-item restore from Veeam Agent backups differs depending on the type of the backup repository that you use to create Veeam Agent backups.

• For Veeam Agent backups created in a Veeam backup repository, the procedure of application-item restore does not differ from the same procedure for VM backups. To learn more, see the Restoring Application Items section in the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.
• For Veeam Agent backups created in a cloud repository, you can perform application-item restore using the backup console on the tenant Veeam Backup & Replication server. To learn more, see Restoring Application Items from Cloud Repository.

Restoring Application Items from Cloud Repository

If you use Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows to create backups in a cloud repository, you can restore data from such backups using the backup console on the tenant Veeam Backup & Replication server.

To restore application items from a cloud repository:

1. In the tenant Veeam Backup & Replication console, locate the necessary Veeam Agent backup.
2. Open the Veeam Backup browser.
3. In the Veeam Backup browser, browse to the database file of the application whose items you want to restore (DIT, EDB, MDF etc.).
4. Double-click the database file to open the corresponding Veeam Explorer.
5. Use the Veeam Explorer to restore application items you need.
