Restoring to a Different Location

When you restore InterSystems IRIS instance data to a different location, Veeam Backup & Replication writes the data back to a different specified ODB server and creates new file system paths from which the backup was created. Additional path mapping and credentials for the different location server are required. Veeam Backup & Replication uses the connection established during protection group setup.

Important

Before starting the snapshot InterSystems IRIS instance restore, ensure the following conditions are met:

The IRIS instance on the ODB server is stopped.
The restored volumes are unmounted from the target server and no longer in use.

If the instance is still running when Veeam Backup & Replication attempts to overwrite the .DAT files, the restore will fail.

To restore InterSystems IRIS instance data to a different location, you can perform the following operations:

Launch the InterSystems IRIS Instance Restore wizard.
Select a restore point.
Specify a restore destination.
Specify the new file path for restored files.
Specify the restore operation reason.
Complete the restore process.
Perform post-restore operations on the target server.
