Login
Each time you begin Barracuda Restore and
perform an action that requires authentication, you
will be required to log in. Once logged in, you will
be required to re-login only if youve changed yourconnection location.
The user name and password should be the same for both the Backup Server and the offsite location
logins. This login is identical to that which you use on the Control Panel.

Connections
You can choose to restore from either your Backup Server or from the offsite location. When possible, i
is recommended that you restore from the Backup Server. The Backup Server restore is much faster.
The Backup Servers windowwill list your Backup Servers.
Select one and then choose
whether youll be restoring its
data from the Backup Server or
from offsite. You must select a
Backup Server even if restoring
from the offsite location so that
Barracuda Restore can retrieve
data for the correct Backup Server.
Backup Server Location
Offsite Location
If you choose to restore from a Backup Server and click the Backup Server button, the IP Address listed
and the default port will be used. If you click the Manual button, the same IP Address and the defaul
port will be lled in, but you can change
these settings. This will not be necessary for
normal use, unless instructed by Barracuda
technical support.
If you click the Offsite button, the address
of the offsite location and the offsite default
port will be lled in. Once again, you
should only change these if instructed by
Barracuda technical support.

Preferences
Colors
The Colors tab is strictly for aesthetics. You can use gradients (as demonstrated in the screen shots of
this manual) or just leave the windows in the system colors.
If you choose to personalize your restoring experience by adding some color to your application, youhave a lot of choices on how to apply it. Feel free to play around. Nothing here affects the speed of
the restores.
The Window Gradient Type
affects how the gradients
are drawn on the windows
surface. The Header
Gradient Type affects the
column headers on lists.
To change the color, click in
the box of a color type. This
opens the color dialog. The
slider on the right side of
each color box adjusts the
range of the gradient.
Note: When you select a
color, the application will
detect whether the luminosity
works best with white or
black text and will adjust the text of the labels in the windows accordingly. If you select a color too
middle of the road, the application will adjust it to the closest acceptable luminosity. Depending on
whether youve selected a light or dark color the gradient will fade from your selection to white or black
respectively, preventing a gradient that interferes with label text.
Turning off the gradients will not overwrite your selections, but Reverting the Colors and then Applying
them will.

File Exploring & Selection
File View
If youre looking for a le and youre not
sure of the location but know at least
part of the name, then try doing a File
Search.
The rst 500 records maximum are
returned, so limiting the potential returns
by selecting a size range and/or date
range may help nd the le(s) youre
looking for.
If you click on a listed le, youll get
some information about it in a tool tip,
including the number of revisions.
If you double-click a le, youll see a listing of all revisions by date. (This
also works in Folder View when double-clicking a le.)

File Exploring & Selection
Folder View
If you need to restore a directory or several directories or les from the same date and time, use the
Folder View. This is a tree view system that displays your backed-up data as it existed at a particular
point in time.
Optionally, you can choose to view data that had previously been deleted in this view, as well.
Note: When you make selections, the Estimates window shows you the number of les and total size
selected. This may be incorrect when viewing removed/deleted les. When a folder selection is made
that folders totals (which are cached to avoid having to add the contents on the y) do not include
deleted folders/les within it. Therefore, in the tree view, you may see deleted folders that are no
counted in the totals.
Once you begin a restore and all the les in that restore are returned, the totals will be correct.

Once the restore has begun, youll see les in the process of being restored listed with progress bars
in the top right listbox.

Across the top right is a progress bar indicating the entire restore with labels.
The folder button below the restores progress bar opens the indicated restore location.

Restore Canceling, Postponement & Pausing
You can cancel a restore in progress. This will abort the restore,
but you will still be able to access les that were completed.
Secondarily, you can postpone a restore. This will abort therestore. You can access the les that were completed and les
that were partially completed will be continued where they left
off if you choose to restore them in the future. This is very helpful
if you must stop the restore of a very large le.
You may also choose to pause a restore temporarily.

be returned rather quickly.
