SQL Restore Error Handling

[matnaylor]

The Pworeshell documentation is a little light on detail around any validation or error handling that the veeam restore command do.
https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backu ... ml?ver=100

In this case, I would be keep to see if anyone knows how veeam handles disk space validation when restoring a SQLusing restore-vesqldatabase
IE, will this do a disk space check before droping the database and restoring over it, or will it simply start the restore and then fail if it runs out of disk space ?

Im intrestitned to know if we should be adding our own logic in to check this, or if its something we should be able to relay on veeam to safely handle

Hello,
the text does not state, that it handles disk space check.

If you want to catch a "free disk space error", then you need to check upfront, yes.

Best regards,

In fact, I don't recall any Copy/Restore/Migration-related cmdlets, which would check disk free space, folder quota etc.
and compare it against an amount of data being moved primarily to the main action.
That's what error handlers and separate validation patterns are for.
