Dell EqualLogic Host Integration Tools for Microsoft Edition Version 5.4 Release Notes

SQL Server

HIT/ME supports online backup and quick restore of SQL Server databases using the Auto-Snapshot Manager GUI. See Platforms Affected for supported versions of SQL Server.

The following constraints apply when using HIT/ME with SQL Server:

  • Auto-Snapshot Manager does not support SQL Server database object recovery (such as recovering table data). This recovery is available only by using the Restore as New Database option, and by other manual tasks.
  • You cannot use Auto-Snapshot Manager to create Smart Copies of multiple databases that span iSCSI volumes. This procedure might result in torn Smart Copies of any database not selected for the Smart Copy operation. Dell recommends that you create a collection that includes all the database volumes to avoid torn Smart Copies.
  • Selective restoration of databases sharing similar PS Series volumes might take a long time. The file system’s copy operation replaces only the selected database files.
  • If you select the Apply log option for a single database in a database collection, all the databases remain in a restoring state when the Auto-Snapshot Manager restore process completes.
