Restore Techniques

• The catalog protection has expired. Refer to “Most Frequently Used

	Backup Options” on page 227 for more information about data and
	catalog protection.
	• The media are not from the same Data Protector cell and, as such, are
	not recognized in the IDB of the cell. In this case, you need to import
	it first.
Prerequisite	A large amount of memory on the Cell Manager is required. The amount
	of memory needed can be estimated by using the following formula:
	number_of_files multiplied by 200 bytes.
Limitations	• You cannot list database application objects from the media.
	• Files that span several media cannot be restored directly fro media.
	All media needed to restore the file have to be imported, and then the
	file can be restored using the List From Database option.
How to Restore	To restore data directly from media, click List From Media in the
Directly from	Actions menu of your restore context, and follow the Restore from
Media	media wizard. For detailed steps, refer to the online Help index keyword
	“restoring directly from media”.
