Restoring virtual machines from backups
During the restore process, a new virtual machine is deployed and the existing VM is not overwritten. You can restore a VM from a backup of a boot volume only.
Prerequisites
- A volume backup is created automatically, as described in Creating backup plans, or manually, as described in Creating and deleting backups manually.
To restore a virtual machine
- On the Recovery points screen, click the recovery point from which you want to restore a VM.
- On the right pane, click Restore virtual machine.
-
In the Restore virtual machine window, the boot volume will be defined automatically and will be restored from the selected recovery point. Specify all other VM parameters, as described in Creating virtual machines.
- Click Deploy.
The new virtual machine will appear on the Virtual machines screen.
