Hello
Windows client , drive c:\ have two folders - test1 and test2 . Test2 folder have file aa.txt
I want to restore folder test2 with all related folders and files and with same permissions to c:\restore.
I expect to find c:restore\test2\aa.txt , but found c:\restore\aa.txt
The only way to achive what I want is to restore both folders to c:\restore and than remove folder test1
Is there a easy way to do that ?
Regards
Asher
Hello,
When doing the redirected restore, are you able to selecting the test2 folder or just the aa.txt? Also what is the redirected restore path your using?
while doing the restore did you select the option
We would need to see a screen shot of what you selected and also how you specified your alternate path - this makes the difference with this type of restore
Hi,
When selecting I am selecting directory test2
When doing the restore I tryed the two options
Restore everything to a different location (maintaining existing structure)
and
Restore individual directories (folders) and files to different locations
Attached are the screen shots .
Thanks
Asher
If you expect to see c:\restore\test2\aa.txt, you need to select the 2nd option:
Restore everything to a different location (maintaining existing structure)

Hi Marianne
I tryed the two options , with the same result
The only way that work - if I write destination as c:\restore\test2 , but then directory test2 is created with new permissions , and I wanted to restore test2 with the backuped permissions
Any new ideas ? I'm still wating
Asher,
I recently had a case very similar to this.
Trying to restore, for example 'm:\Backmeup\Data1\files.ext' to s:\Restores\ restulted in just
s:\Restores\files.ext
instead of
s:\Restores\Data1\files.ext
As a workaround, what I've ended up doing is adding a small file to the upper level of the directory tree
Directory of m:\ 11/26/2013 10:27 AM <DIR> BackMeUp 11/26/2013 10:27 AM 592 datafile.txt
Then, select that, along with the directory and the subdirectories you want restored. The result is that you get that file and the required folder, along with all it's subfolders restored as desired. It's then just a case of deleting 'datafile.txt'
Directory of S:\Restores 11/26/2013 10:35 AM <DIR> . 11/26/2013 10:35 AM <DIR> .. 11/26/2013 10:35 AM <DIR> BackMeUp 11/26/2013 10:27 AM 592 datafile.txt
That might be of use to you?
Hello Ncollie,
Your workaround is very nice and it's similar to what I wrote in the description of the case.
I have a customer that was not satisfied with the solution ! gave him , he wants a solution that reuires one move.
Thanks
Asher
