3. Click the View by Resource tab in the Selections pane, and select the dataset to be restored.4. Click Run Now to start the restore job.5. Click the Job Monitor tab to view the progress of the restore job operation you created.Understanding the OST CLI CommandsThe OpenStorage Transport (OST) --mode component supported in the DR Series system command line interface (CLI)command supports three values, which represent optimized writes done via:• deduplication (--mode dedupe) The client will process hashing on data, so deduplication processing occurs on theserver side (client-side deduplication).• passthrough (--mode passthrough) The client will pass all data to DR for deduplication processing (appliance-sidededuplication).• auto (--mode auto)DR will set the deduplication to Dedupe or Passthrough, based on the client’s number of cores and whether it is 32–or 64–bit.These OST commands are used in the following format: ost --update_client --name --mode.NOTE: If an OST client has four or more CPU cores, it is considered to be dedupe-capable. However, the OSTclient operating mode depends upon how it is configured in the DR Series system (Dedupe is the default OSTclient mode). If the administrator did not configure an OST client to operate in a specific mode and it is dedupe-capable, it will run in the Dedupe mode. If an OST client is not dedupe-capable (meaning the OST client has lessthan four CPU cores), and the administrator sets it to run in the Dedupe mode, it will only run in the Passthroughmode. If an OST client is set to run in Auto mode, the OST client will run in the mode setting determined by themedia server. The following table shows the relationship between the configured OST client mode types and thesupported client mode based on client architecture type and corresponding number of CPU cores.Table 6.
