How to Restore MS SQL, Exchange, Hyper-V, VMware
Restore using the Exchange Plug-in
If the client is installed on one of the supported platforms listed above and you have an active Exchange plug-in, you may restore a previous Exchange backup using the plug-in by selecting the Exchange server using the file selection tree or list view under the Restore Tab.
Note: To restore an Exchange storage group, you must mark the database as being able to be overwritten by a restore in the properties of the exchange store you want to restore using the Exchange System Manager. You also need to dismount the store. (For more information on using the Exchange System Manager, refer to your Exchange server documentation).
This will permit you to restore the exchange storage group to the original location on the original backed up machine or on a new system with the same machine name. Also note that if you are doing a full restore of exchange you need to restore the System State BEFORE you restore the Exchange Storage Group.
Restore using the SQL Plug-in
If the client is installed on one of the supported platforms listed above and you have an active SQL plug-in, you may restore a previous SQL backup using the plug-in by selecting the SQL server using the file selection tree or list view under the Restore Tab.
If you check the box next to the server name, all databases will be selected for restore. To select only a specific database, expand the SQL Server object by clicking on the + symbol and check only the appropriate databases you want to restore.
This will permit you to restore the SQL database(s) to their original location on the original backed up machine or on a new system with the same machine name.
Note: If the MS SQL databases names already exist, as the same names that you are using to restore, you will have to mark each existing MS SQL database as Offline in order for it to restore. You can do this via SQL Management Studio, by right-clicking on each database and telling it to go to Offline mode, via the Tasks > Take Offline menu item.

Restore using the Hyper-V Plug-in
If you have an active Hyper-V plug-in, you may restore a previous Hyper-V backup by selecting the Hyper-V name using the file selection tree or list view under the Restore Tab.
If you check the box next to the Hyper-V name, all virtual machines will be selected for restore. To select only a specific virtual machine, expand the Hyper-V object by clicking on the + symbol and check only the virtual machines you want to restore. Restoring a Hyper-V virtual machine will overwrite the current version of the Hyper-V virtual machine that is there.
Note: Make sure to shutdown the existing Hyper-V VM prior to restoring that same VM.
Restore using the VMware Plug-in
Restoring a Virtual Machine is quite easy. Simply select the Virtual Machine to restore in the restore screen and click the restore button.
Note: Make sure to shutdown the existing VMware VM prior to restoring that same VM.
