Contributors netapp-mwallis

Backups of your Microsoft SQL Server data from NetApp Backup and Recovery are available for restore from the locations where you moved the backups: snapshots, replications, or backups in object storage. You can restore a workload to the original system, to a different system that's using the same cloud account, or to an on-premises ONTAP system. Review the restore-from locations, restore points, and resource types to restore.

Restore from these locations

You can restore workloads from different starting locations:

  • Restore from a primary location

  • Restore from a replicated resource

  • Restore from an object store backup

Restore to these points

You can restore data to the latest snapshot or to these points:

  • Restore from snapshots

  • Restore to a specific point in time. This is helpful if you know the name and location of the file, and the date when it was last in good shape.

  • Restore to the latest backup
