Before You Begin

In this article

Before you restore VM disks, check the following prerequisites:

You can restore VM disks from a backup that has at least one successfully created restore point.
During the VM hard disk restore, Veeam Backup & Replication turns off the target VM to reconfigure its settings and attach restored disks. It is recommended that you stop all activities on the target VM for the restore period.
You cannot mount restored disks to a VM that has one or more snapshots.

On non-Microsoft Windows SMB3 storages, for example, Tintri, Veeam Backup & Replication 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 storages.
