Hi @virgil - it sounds to me like you enabled block-level backups on the file system agent rather than the SQL agent (although happy to be wrong). Can you verify the following has been set:

  1. From the CommCell Console, click Client Computers > client > SQL Server > instance.
  2. Right-click a subclient > properties
  3. On the Advanced Options tab, select the Optimize for table level restore check box

Ok is done.

i reinstall SQL Agent and restart the server.

I see the table in the mount point but how to restore it in the original instance ?

i see just the proxy node in the field and is grayed out.

Thanks

Hi Virgil:

 

Have you reviewed and followed the doc sections for it:

https://documentation.commvault.com/commvault/v11_sp20/article?p=92238.htm

 

you will see:

“After you create a recovery point, you can restore the SQL tables to the same instance where the recovery point was created.”

 

Let me know if you have done this.
