Differences in SQL restore

[hmontero]

I need to restore an SQL database to another server.

What is the difference beetwen "Microsoft SQL File Redirection" and "Archive Redirection" ?

Both options allow me restore a database in another sql .

Thanks.

Archive re-direction applies in cases when you are using either file archiving or the exchange archiving option & you want to configure restore options for such backup sets...

SQL re-direction applies when you want to redirect, i.e. restore SQL backup sets to a different location than where it was backed up from...

EDIT---

Have a look at this KB - http://www.symantec.com/docs/HOWTO23805

This mentions Archive re-direction redirects the restore of the Archiving Option Directory database to a different SQL Server.
