Online Documentation for SQL Backup for SQL Server

Defining target database parameters


Use this step of the wizard to define the target database parameters.

 

Restore as

Select RadioButton Existing database to restore to an existing database, or RadioButton New database if you want to create a new database.

 

Database name

Select the database to perform restoring on from the list of all available databases on the specified host.

 

 

CheckBox Verify only (RESTORE VERIFYONLY)

Check this option to enable selected backup set verification. Verifying a backup checks that the backup is intact physically, to ensure that all the files in the backup are readable and can be restored, and that you can restore your backup in the event you need to use it.

 

CheckBox Delete downloaded files after restore

If this option is checked the files downloaded from remote/cloud storages will be automatically deleted after restore process ends. This option is enabled when at least one backup file has been downloaded from remote storage at previous step.

 

If the New database option is selected, then database name should be specified in the corresponding field. If you are restoring a database from the differential copy the New database option is unavailable.
