Restoration is handled by the RA and runs on the recovery server. It does not, however,
run continuously like the other agents. It can programmatically be executed from the
command line or through the GUI. The RA deals with the following types of restore
operations:
Virtual restores to a specific date and time
Production restores to a specific date and time
Virtual restores to a virtual full backup (VFB)
Production restores to a virtual full backup (VFB)
Restoring individual protected volumes
Virtual restores occur on the backup server. Production restores are restores in which all volumes defined in a context are rolled back together on the production server.
