Restore with External Backup Tools (DBMGUI) 

When restoring with external backup tools, the external backup IDs of the desired backups are automatically determined by the Database Manager GUI, displayed for the user to check, and then used by the Database Manager GUI during the restore. The user does not need to explicitly determine or specify the external backup IDs, as the DBMGUI automatically determines the required information.

If you want the system to display the external backup IDs for information purposes, you can follow the procedure described under:
