This article is in the initial stage and may be updated, replaced or deleted at any time. It is inappropriate to use this document as reference material as it is a work in progress and should be treated as such.
Welcome to the latest SEP sesam documentation version 4.4.3 Grolar. For previous documentation version(s), check documentation archive.


Overview

As of SEP sesam v. 4.4.3 Grolar, you can use S3 (simple storage solution) cloud storage to safely store and retrieve your business data. Restoring from the S3 cloud is the same as a regular file system restore. Restore wizard guides you through the process of restoring your data. For step-by-step procedure, see Standard Restore Procedure.

Note that if the data you want to restore is not available on local Si3 store anymore, the Si3 data files will first be downloaded from the S3 cloud storage to the local store. In this case, the Si3 will be restarted during restore.

Restoring from S3

Create a new restore task for the data you want to restore.

  1. From the SEP sesam GUI menu bar, select Activities -> Restore. The New restore task window opens.
  2. Select what you want to restore in the Select task and Select files steps of the wizard. Click Next.
  3. In the final Save and Start step of the wizard, review your restore task configuration and set additional restore options if required.
    • Under the Target Path Settings, select where you want to restore your data. You can choose between restoring to the original target path (set by default, restores the data to the same location) and restoring to the new restore target.
    • Under the Execution options drop-down list, select the overwrite mode. You can choose between do not overwrite existing files (set by default), overwrite existing files and create new version. For details, see the Execution options.
    • You can specify additional restore settings by clicking the Expert options button: modify the log level settings, define the pre/post script for restore, etc. For details, see the Restore Wizard.
  4. To start your restore immediately, click Start. To save the restore task, click Save.
Note
If you are restoring data directly from S3 cloud, the Si3 is restarted during restore.

A restore task can be scheduled like any other task. If you want to add a restore task to the schedule, see Scheduling Restore.
