12.1 Recovering data online
These steps show how to recover files from a backup stored in the online storage to a folder you
specify. Using a similar procedure, you can recover an entire volume from a disk or a volume backup.
To recover files from the online storage
1. Connect the console to the management server.
2. In the welcome screen, click Recover.
3. In the list of machines, double-click the machine where you want to recover files.
4. Under What to recover, in Archive, click Change.
5. In the folders tree, expand Centralized and select the centralized online vault. If prompted,
specify the credentials for the online storage.
6. Select the archive from which you want to recover data. Files can be recovered from file-level
backups only.
7. Click OK to close the dialog box.
8. In Content, click Change and then select the files that you want to recover. By default, all files are
selected.
Details. Here, you can specify the date and time to which you want to revert your files if there is
more than one backup in the archive.
9. Under Where to recover, in Destination, click Change, then click New location, and then specify
the folder to recover the files to. Or you can select this folder from the folder tree.
Tip. By default, the program recovers files to the location from which they were backed up. This
may require a reboot if some of the files are locked by the operating system.
10. Click OK to immediately start the recovery.
12.2 Recovering using Large Scale Recovery
In these steps, you will recover a machine's system and boot volumes from a disk backup. You will use
the Large Scale Recovery service to retrieve backups from the online storage on a hard disk instead of
over the Internet.
You need a separate license, called a Large Scale Recovery license, for each machine whose backups
you want to retrieve in this way.
Note: Recovering a system volume requires a machine reboot.

Retrieving backups

1. Buy a Large Scale Recovery license, if you do not yet have one.
2. Place a large scale recovery order, specifying:
The machine whose backups you want to retrieve
The address where you want the hard drive to be sent
After placing the order, wait until the hard drive arrives. The hard drive remains yours.
