===== Steps =====
<html>
 Refer to the following steps for details:
 <br/>
 <br/>
 <b>
  1. First, copy the backed up data from the backup destination to the client computer.
 </b>
 <br/>
 <ul>
  <li><font color=black>
   For backup destination to AhsayCBS:
   <br/>
   <br/>
   <ul>
    <li><font color=black>
     Copy the entire backup set ID folder of the account within the User Home to the client computer:
     <br/>
     <br/>
     %User_Home%\%username%\%backupset_id%\*
     </font>
    </li>
   </ul>
   <br/>
   For example, copy the following folder within the User Home of account 'username' at:
   <br/>
   <br/>
   E:\User Home\username\1234567890123
   <br/>
   <br/>
   <div class="inline-attachment">
    <dl>
     <dt class="attach-image">
      <img style="width:60%; border:thin solid black" src="http://wiki.ahsay.com/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=public:5020_0.png"/>
     </dt>
    </dl>
   </div>
   <br/>
   To the client computer at:
   <br/>
   <br/>
   F:\Copy Destination\1234567890123
   <br/>
   <br/>

      <img style="width:60%; border:thin solid black" src="http://wiki.ahsay.com/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=public:5020_1.png"/>

   <br/><br>
   <br/>
   </font>
  </li>
  <li><font color=black>
   For backup destination to mapped drive / removable drive:
   <br/>
   <br/>
   <ul>
    <li><font color=black>
     Transfer the removable drive to the client computer, or map the drive to the client computer if possible.
     <br/>
     <br/>
     If the network path is not reachable on the new client computer, copy the entire backup set ID folder of the account within the mapped drive to the client computer:
     <br/>
     <br/>
     %Mapped_Drive%\Backup Destination\%backupset_id%\*
     </font>
    </li>
   </ul>
   <br/>
   For example, copy the entire backup set ID folder to the client computer at:
   <br/>
   <br/>
   F:\Copy Destination\1234567890123
   <br/>
   <br/>

      <img style="width:60%; border:thin solid black" src="http://wiki.ahsay.com/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=public:5020_2.png"/>

   </font>
  </li>
 </ul>
 <br/><br/>
 <br/>
 <b>
  2. Next, configure the backup set to perform the restore.
 </b>
 <br/>
 <br/>
 <ul>
  <li><font color=black>
   Login to the AhsayOBM / ACB client user interface with the original backup account.
   <br/>
   <br/>
   </font>
  </li>
  <li><font color=black>
   Select the 'Backup Sets' tile, then the corresponding backup set to be restored:
   <br/>
   <br/>

      <img style="width:20%; border:thin solid black" src="http://wiki.ahsay.com/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=public:5020_3.png"/>

   <br/><br>
   </font>
  </li>
  <li><font color=black>
   Select 'Destination', then click 'Add':
   <br/>
   <br/>

      <img style="width:60%; border:thin solid black" src="http://wiki.ahsay.com/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=public:5020_4.png"/>

   <br/><br>
   </font>
  </li>
  <li><font color=black>
   From the 'Destination storage' dropdown menu, select 'Local / Mapped Drive / Removable Drive'.
   <br/>
   <br/>
   </font>
  </li>
  <li><font color=black>
   Ensure that the destination type is set to 'Single storage destination', then click on the 'Change' button and point to the 'parent' directory of where you have copied the data to (e.g. parent directory of the backup set ID folder):
   <br/>
   <br/>
   %Copy_Destination%\%backupset_id%\*
   <br/>
   <br/>
   For example:
   <br/>
   <br/>
   F:\Copy Destination
   <br/>
   <br/>

      <img style="width:60%; border:thin solid black" src="http://wiki.ahsay.com/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=public:5020_5.png"/>

   <br/><br>
   </font>
  </li>
  <li><font color=black>
   Press 'OK', then 'Save' to save the setting changes.
   </font>
  </li>
 </ul>
 <br/>
 <br/>

  3. Perform the restoration.
 </b>
 <br/>
 <br/>
 <ul>
  <li><font color=black>
   In the client user interface, select the 'Restore' tile:
   <br/>
   <br/>

      <img style="width:20%; border:thin solid black" src="http://wiki.ahsay.com/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=public:5020_6.png"/>

   <br/><br>
   </font>
  </li>
  <li><font color=black>
   Select the corresponding backup set:
   <br/>
   <br/>

      <img style="width:60%; border:thin solid black" src="http://wiki.ahsay.com/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=public:5020_7.png"/>

   <br/><br>
   </font>
  </li>
  <li><font color=black>
   Select the destination created in the previous step:
   <br/>
   <br/>

      <img style="width:60%; border:thin solid black" src="http://wiki.ahsay.com/lib/exe/fetch.php?media=public:5020_8.png"/>

   <br/><br/>
   </font>
  </li>
  <li><font color=black>
   Continue by clicking on the 'Next' button to select the files to be restore, the restore destination and the temporary folder to be used for the restore process.
   <br/>
   <br/>
   </font>
  </li>
  <li><font color=black>
   Press the 'Restore' button to start the restore job.
   </font>
  </li>
 </ul>
 <br/>
 <font color=#FF0000>
  <b>
   Important:</b>
   <br/>
   It is strongly recommended that all backup sets are configured to backup to multiple backup destinations, to provide user with data redundancy and backup / restore flexibility.
