Hello Nando,

What do you mean by "fetching restore information items"? To be
connected to the restoring database and counting the restored records?
I think it is dangerous and may lead to DB corruption. What do you
think?

Is there any possibility to ask the server if the resore is finished?

Thanks
Christophe.
