Hi all;


we have a client using veeam to do vmware snapshots of the db servers, 
unfortunately as far as I can tell any restore of a veeam snapshot also 
restores the state, which means the db gets restored in an online state. 
As far as I know, once the db is online we cannot force it back into 
recovery mode to do a PITR recovery, correct?

Anyone know of a way to do PITR recoveries with veeam?


Thanks in advance
