Restore

Restore Examples

Restore to a Subdirectory Inside the Container

If the objects were selected inside container1, the following restore command will relocate objects under /tmp. For example: /container1/home/file.png will be restored as /container1/tmp/home/file.png.

* restore where=/container1/tmp

Restore to an Alternate Container

If the objects where selected inside container1, the following restore command will relocate them under container2. ex: /container1/home/file.png will be restored as /container2/home/file.png.

* restore where=container2

Restore to a Local Directory

You may restore the files to your local filesystem by setting the restore_local option to yes in the Plugin Restore Options menu. You must specify the where= option.

* restore where=/home/user/my_restored_files

After the selection of the files you want to restore, modify the plugin option, select option 5 restore_local, and set it to ’yes’
