Azure Storage Accounts: Restore a Blob Container

Find the snapshot you want to restore

1. In your inventory, select the Azure storage account you want to restore. The Resource details panel opens.

2. Click the Eon snapshots tab. You’ll see a calendar view with colored dots on the days when snapshots were taken. There can be more than one snapshot per day.

   When you click a day, a list of Eon snapshots taken that day is displayed below the calendar.

3. When you find the snapshot you want to restore, click Restore. The Restore Storage Account wizard opens.

Choose the restore account

In the Restore Storage Account wizard, you’re taken through a two-step process. The first step is to choose a restore account.

Choose the subscription you want to restore to, and then click Next.

Set the restored container details

In the Configuration step, you’ll set the restored data details.

1. Select the destination Storage account you want the data restored to.

2. Select the destination Container. You can select an existing container, or choose Use source containers to restore to the original container names from the snapshot.

   • If you select a specific container, all blobs from all source containers are restored into that single container.

   • If you choose Use source containers, Eon recreates the original container names on the destination storage account. If a container with the same name already exists, blobs are restored into the existing container.

3. Optionally, you can provide a Prefix if you want to restore the data to a specific location in the container. If you don’t provide a prefix, the data is restored to the container root.

   If there are naming conflicts with existing blobs, Eon overwrites the existing data. Use a unique prefix to avoid overwrites.

4. Click Restore to start the asynchronous restore job.

Monitor the restore job

You can see your list of restore jobs on the Restore jobs tab in the Jobs page.
