Restore Definition: Overview

Mode | The underlying method by which the data is to be transferred: Block, Agentless VMware, Image, NDMP, File, or Tape.) |
Source | The data to be restored and the device it is restored from. |
Destination | The location to which the data is restored. |
Source Options, Destination Options, and Job Notification Options | Rules of behavior associated with the restore. If you do not set these options, DPX uses the defaults you set during configuration. |
Schedule | The time and frequency of the restore. You can save and manually run a job without defining a schedule. |
