Step 6. Select Target Folders and Change VM Settings

The Folder step of the wizard is available if you have selected Restore to a new location, or with different settings at the Restore Mode step.

At the Folder step of the wizard, specify a destination VM folder, choose whether you want to restore VM tags and change VM names. By default, Veeam Backup & Replication preserves the original names.

Restoring VM Tags

Select the Restore VM tags check box if you want to restore tags that were assigned to the original VM and to assign them to the restored VM. Veeam Backup & Replication will restore the VM with original tags if the following conditions are met:

• The VM is restored to its original location.
• The original VM tag is still available on the source vCenter Server.

3. Click OK.

Changing Names

To change VM names:

1. Select VMs in the list and click Name.
2. In the Change VM Settings window, enter a new name explicitly or specify a change name rule by adding a prefix or suffix to the original VM name.
3. Click OK.
