Restoring File Permissions

Question

During File/Folder Restore, are Windows files maintained? And if so, are the file permissions applied during the individual restoration of the files and folders, or are they applied at the end of the restoration process?

Solution

File Restore:

CDP 2.x restores Windows file attributes. CDP 2.x does not restore the system (audit rules) or discretionary (permissions) ACLs.

NTFS ACL restore is available only in CDP 3.

Bare-Metal Restore:

Yes, ACLs are always restored in all CDP product versions.
