Is it possible to restore SQL database to a different server

Post by mschlott »

I would like to be able to restore a backup of our production database to our QA database server. Is that possible using Veeam AIR?

It appears that when requesting a backup, I have to specify the database that I am interested in, and backup that is used will always be the backup of that database. I never see an option to connect to a different database.

Hi Mike,

If you need to restore the entire database to a new SQL Server, I would suggest using FLR wizard to restore db files. Once you've done it, just attach these files to a desired SQL Server.

Thanks!
