Security Options
Secure your RestoreLast operations with the following options:

Advanced Options
The following advanced options help you perform RestoreLast operations:
Options | Description |
|---|---|
| -ArgsFile <filename> | The path to a file containing command-line arguments. <filename> - specifies the file that contains the command line arguments. |
| -ContinueAfterError | Instructs SQL Server to continue the operation despite encountering errors such as invalid checksums. Note: for SQL 2005 and later only. |
-IncludeLogins | For backup, includes the database logins in the backup file. For restore, creates the logins from the backup file on the destination server. |
| -ReportTLog | For backup, 'Yes' reports skipped t-log backups against databases that are in simple mode with a SUCCESS status rather than SKIPPED. |
| -MaxTransferSize | Specifies the largest unit of transfer in bytes to be used between SQL Safe and the backup media. The possible values are multiples of 65536 bytes (64KB) ranging up to 4194304 bytes (4 MB). This parameter is used to enable compression on TDE enabled databases only when the MaxTransferSize value is set to 65537 or higher. If omitted, the MaxTransferSize will be taken from the 'TransferLimit' value set in the SQL Safe agent properties. |
| -KeepReplication | Preserves replication settings when restoring a published database to a server other than that on which it was created. |
| -MailTo <email_address> | <email_address> - an email address(es) to send the notification via SMTP. Note: multiple addresses may be separated by spaces, semicolons, or commas. |
| -RecoveryMode <mode> [-UndoFile <filename>] | Specifies the mode in which to leave the database after the operation is completed. <mode> - NoRecovery, Standby. Note: for Standby mode an undo file may be specified with the -UndoFile option. |
| -RetryReads <interval> <retry_time> <total_time> | On a network file error, retry every <interval> seconds for up to <retry_time> seconds. Total retry time allowed is <total_time> minutes. |
| -UndoFile <filename> | <filename> - specifies the ABSOLUTE path to the undo filename. Note: for Standby recovery mode only. |
| -KeepCDC | Flag to indicate whether the restore will support the Microsoft SQL Server Change Data Capture (CDC) feature. The possible values are 1 (CDC restore will be supported) or 0 (CDC restore will not be supported). If the KeepCDC parameter is set to 1 then the CDC enabled database will be restored along with the CDC related artifacts and the Capture and Cleanup jobs will be created with the default options. If the parameter is omitted, CDC restore will not be supported. |
