# Step 7. Monitor Restore Process

You can monitor the restore process by viewing the restore session log. To do this, use the following command:

```
veeamconfig session log --id <session_id>
```

where `<session_id>` — ID of the restore session.

For example:

```
srv01# veeamconfig session log --id 12cfddd6-3bd1-44ae-baa1-653eb909e92e
