How to Recover a Database to a Different Instance of SQL Server

To recover a database to a different instance of SQL Server, you use the Recover to any SQL

instance option. This option is unavailable if you select Latest as the recovery point from which

to recover the database.

To recover a database to a different instance of SQL Server

1. In DPM Administrator Console, click Recovery on the navigation bar.

2. Using either the browse or search functionality, select the database to recover.

3. On the calendar, click any date in bold to obtain the recovery points available for that

date. The Recovery time menu lists the time for each available recovery point.

4. On the Recovery time menu, select the recovery point you want to use. Do not

select Latest for the recovery point.

5. In the Actions pane, click Recover.

The Recovery Wizard starts.

6. On the Review recovery selection page, click Next.

7. Select Recover to any SQL instance, and then click Next.

8. On the Specify recovery destination page, the actions you can take depend on the

version of SQL Server database:

• If you are recovering a database created by SQL Server 2000, specify the alternate

instance of SQL Server to which the database should be recovered. The database

must use the same complete path that it used in its original location.

• If you are recovering a database created by SQL Server 2005, specify the alternate

instance of SQL Server to which the database should be recovered. You can also

specify a path for the database that differs from the path that it used in its original

location.

9. Specify recovery options for network bandwidth usage throttling, SAN-based recovery,

and e-mail notifications, and click Next.

10. On the Summary page, review the recovery settings and then click Recover.
