Hi Community,
I would like to know the time takes to restore an online enviornment of Size 50Gb and 100 GB to another environment.
I have gone through the Microsoft docs and did not find any information about this. And looking for your reply to prepare a document for my Business/Client.
I'm checking below docs.
Appreciate any response from community.
I agree with Daniel.
There are no fixed numbers for this. I've done it several times with various database sizes and concluded that there is no real conclusions to be made.
I understand that your client wants to know by forehand, but I can't give you a scientific answer. My experience is that it is usually quite fast, but not something you would sit around and wait for to be finished.
In practice you would not restore a production environment that often, because all the changes are reverted. My experience is that if just a part of the system needs to be restored, management does not restore the system because there will be so much data loss in the other part of the system.
Although my experience is that a complete restore could take up two hours I would not advise you to give any numbers to the client, because you cannot guarantee it. Instead note that both Microsoft and you will work as fast as possible and the likelihood that a complete restore will be necessary is very low.
Regards,
Timothy
Hey Bipin.
There's no straight number that indicates this:
> on one side, Environments use Database capacity but also File Capacity and Log Capacity. When you say 50GB, are you referring to the sum of all these capacities or just 50GB DB?
> Copy/restore operation compress several different copy/restore operations: Database, Files, Provisioning services, metadata copy. Depending on backend jobs, these operations might take more or less time
Perhaps the best approach you can take is to make a test on your side (make a copy Monday morning, Friday afternoon, Sunday afternoon) and provide numbers based on this.
