Restoring Files From Backup
The gateway provides a number of ways to restore files to previous versions stored on the cloud, or to recover deleted files from the cloud. Some of the methods can be used by administrators, while other methods enable end users to restore their own files.
You can restore files and folders to the gateway using any of the following:
*The gateway user interface's Cloud Backup Control Panel
This can be done by administrators only. See Restoring Files and Folders from the Cloud Backup Control Panel.
*The CTERA Portal
You can access the CTERA Portal and restore files from there. This can be done by administrators only.
*The Virtual Cloud Drive
This can be done by both administrators and end users. See Restoring Files and Folders from a Cloud Snapshot Using the Virtual Cloud Drive.
*Microsoft Windows Previous Versions Interface
This can be done by both administrators and end users. See Restoring Files and Folders Using Microsoft Windows Previous Versions Interface.
*The gateway user interface's FILES tab
This can be done by both administrators and end users. See Restoring Files and Folders from a Cloud/NEXT3 Snapshot From the FILES Tab.
In addition, you can restore files and folders from cloud or for gateways running versions prior to version 6.0.696.26, NEXT3 snapshots, to a CTERA Agent using the following method:
*The CTERA Agent Manager's Restore tab
