The SQL Safe Restore Policy Wizard allows you to create restore maintenance plans across your enterprise. A SQL Safe restore policy is defined as a set of databases for which restore operations will be performed according to a defined schedule. By default, SQL Safe creates the SQL Server jobs for the specified restores.
You can create a restore policy for any database that belongs to a backup policy and has a full backup.
