Facing problem with restoring backed up data

[sazzad]

Recently i just experiencing strange issue with restoring backed up data.

If you can see in bellow snaps, one of our file server is having many data under: D:\dfs\data\Osnabrueck\..... directory.

I can see data from backup job selection list too.

Yesterday we had full backup of that file server & i was trying to restore one folder that was backed up.

Unfortunately can't find any data under that directory. Please have a close look over the snapshots.

It will help you to understand the problem properly.

If you are taking backup of DFS data than you need to select the folders through Shadow Copy

Components of the server. Refer to the below articles.
