Restore only missing items

Post by aeph »

Hi all,

we need to restore a large folder/ library that is containing a lot of sub folders and documents within a sharepoint site. A lot of them got deleted but not all.

We saw the feature "missing item" (https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbo36 ... tml?ver=80) in the restore options.

Does this mean that if we restore a backup from a few hours before the deletion—compared to our production environment—only the deleted items will be restored while all modified items remain unchanged?

Am i missunderstanding something?

Hi aeph,

The behavior is different depending on the target location you restore to. When you select an option to restore to the initial location and choose to restore missing items, only deleted (missing) files will be restored. But when you restore to a different location, this setting is ignored and all files from the directory will be restored.

Thanks!
