Step 1. Select Restore Point

In the Restore Point dropdown list, select a backup node which stores the desired restore points.

Expand the backup job and choose the backup point you want to restore from. Then, from the restore source list on the right, check the desired timepoint, user, user group, user directory, metadata, etc.

After authentication, you can use full-text search and advanced search to find the data you wish to restore based on timepoints. If you select a timepoint from the tree structure on the left, the search scope will be within that timepoint. If you select a user, the search scope will be within the selected user. If you select a directory within a user, the search scope will be within the selected user directory.

Step 2. Select Restore Destination

In the Please Select an Organization list, select either the original organization or another organization for the restore. Selecting the original organization allows for an Overwrite Recovery, while selecting another organization only allows for a New Recovery.

If the selected restore point is a single user's data and the restore method is New Recovery, you can specify a user for the restore.

New Recovery

Notice

When the selected organization is exchange server and the target organization does not have the user selected from the restore point, the job will proceed to create a new user. When the selected organization is exchange online and the target organization does not have the user selected from the restore source, the restore for that user will be skipped.

Step 3. Configure Restore Strategy

For Throttling Policy, there are two types of throttling Policy: Customized Policy and Global Policy, these settings are optional.

  • Customized Policy: This policy is only effective for the current job. You can set the throttling to occur daily, weekly, or monthly, and specify the start and end times for the throttling. For permanent throttling, you only need to set the throttling limit.

  • Global Policy: To use this policy, you must first configure it in Resources > Throttling Policy. This policy can be applied to multiple jobs.

Throttling Policy

For Transfer_Threads, users can configure multithreaded transmission for the restore job.

Advanced Strategy

For Transmission Strategy, users can enable Encrypted Transfer. And backup data is transmitted via RSA encryption algorithms (this configuration is not available for exchange online).

You can configure Retry Attempts and Retry Interval to set Number of network reconnection attempts before giving up and the time interval between each retry attempts (5-60 seconds).

Transmission Strategy

For Advanced Strategy, the setting is optional. You can enable Auto Retry, it will retry the backup of a specific piece of data based on the configured retry interval and retry attempts if the initial backup attempt fails.
