Hello!

SureBackup file integrity test works in the same way as Veeam Backup Validator works.
If SureBackup validation test is failed, it just informs user about failed test.

The first step of Health check does the same trick as SureBackup validation test but Health Check has additional logic:
It removes information about corrupted restore point from configuration database and can process actual data blocks from production during retries.

Thanks!
