Abstract
Disclosed methods and systems leverage resources in a storage management system to restore a selected backup to a production site. The backup is partitioned into blocks with associated signatures. The production site may have blocks that have not changed from when the backup occurred, so those blocks do not need to be restored. Block signatures from the production site are compared with block signatures from the incremental backup to identify blocks that need to be restored. Efficiency may be achieved by synchronizing the replacement blocks from more easily accessible location where available before synchronizing from less accessible locations. In some embodiments, a user may specify the location of the site with the replacement blocks.
