After the VM has been successfully recovered, you must finalize the process. For this, test the recovered machine and decide whether to migrate it to production or unpublish.
To open a VM console in Veeam Backup & Replication:
- Open the Home view.
- In the inventory pane, select the Instant Recovery node.
- In the working area, right-click the VM and select Open VM console.
To migrate a recovered VM to the production environment:
- In the working area, right-click the VM and select Migrate to production. Veeam Backup & Replication will launch the Quick Migration wizard.
During migration, Veeam Backup & Replication will restore the VM from the backup file and additionally move all changes that were made while the VM was running from the backup in the Instant Recovery mode.
|
When you pass though the Quick Migration wizard, if you don't need the recovery source files anymore, you can enable the Delete source VM files upon successful migration option. Veeam Backup & Replication will restore the VM to production and automatically stop the Instant VM recovery session. If you do not enable this option, the Instant VM recovery session will still be running, and you will need to unpublish the recovered VM manually. |
- Open the Home view.
- In the inventory pane, select the Instant Recovery node.
- In the working area, right-click the VM and select Stop publishing.
