Restore Gmail

To restore Gmail data for a user, configure the following settings:

Procedure

  1. Choose where you would like to restore the selected backup data.
    • Restore the data to its original location – Restore the data to where it was backed up.
    • Restore the data to another location – Restore the data to another destination.
  2. Configure the following settings based on your scenario:
    • If you choose Restore the data to its original location, configure the following settings:
      1. Select a container level conflict resolution from the following:
        • Skip – The destination container settings will remain unchanged.
        • Merge – The backup container settings and the content will be merged with the destination container.
      2. Select a content-level conflict resolution from the following:
        • Skip – Existing data in the destination will remain unchanged, and the associated labels will be restored.
        • Overwrite – Existing data will be replaced by the backup data.
    • If you choose Restore the data to another location, configure the following settings:
      1. Enter keywords of the destination account’s address, and then select the destination account from the drop-down list.
        Note: The drop-down list only displays Google users scanned via Auto discovery in IBM® Storage Protect for Cloud.
      2. View the default name of the new label where the selected data will be restored to the destination. You can customize the name of the new label. If this label name conflicts with another label name in the destination, this label name will be appended with “_1”.
  3. If you want to restore backup data stored on the Azure archive storage tier, select the Automatically rehydrate if backup data is in Azure archive storage tier checkbox.
    Note: This setting is only for the Microsoft Azure Blob custom storage location in a BYOS (Bring your own storage) subscription. For IBM default storage, the restore job will automatically rehydrate data.
  4. If necessary, you can enter your comments in the Description field for this restore job.
  5. Click Next to have an overview of the restore settings.
  6. Click Restore to start the restore job. If you want to go back to edit restore settings, click Back.
