After restoring the backed up Windows System image from the backup destination, you can use the restored data to recover your server.
For server platforms such as Server 2008 / 2008 R2 / 2012 / 2012 R2, you can recover individual files, folders, volumes, application, application data, operating system, or full-system (bare-metal) with the following tools:
Tool | What you can recover |
---|---|
Recovery wizard (in Windows Server Backup) | Files, folders, volumes, application, and application data. |
Windows setup disc / Windows Recovery Environment (Windows RE) | Operating system (critical volume), and full server recovery (all volumes). |
