Veeam Backup & Replication 9.5 [Archived]
Veeam Backup FREE Edition User Guide

Before You Begin

Before you restore a VM from a backup, check the following prerequisites:

  • You can restore a VM from a backup that has at least one successfully created restore point.
  • When you restore a VM to its initial location and the original VM is still running, Veeam Backup Free Edition will power off the original VM and restore only the disks included in the backup file. All other disks and VM configuration will not be changed.
  • On non-Microsoft Windows SMB3 storage, for example, Tintri, Veeam Backup Free Edition may display the "Failed to disable integrity bit on disk N" warning during VM restore. You can ignore this warning for non-Microsoft Windows SMB3 storage.
