Step 2. Select Restore Point

At the Virtual Machines step of the wizard, select a restore point that will be used to restore the selected Azure VM, as well as a reason for restore.

By default, Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft Azure uses the most recent valid restore point. However, you can restore the Azure VM data to an earlier state.

To select a specific restore point, do the following:

In the Specify virtual machines to restore list, select the VM and click the Change Restore Point icon.
In the Specify restore point window, select the necessary restore point.

Tip

You can filter the list of restore points by selecting the backup date range or destination.

Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft Azure provides the following information on each available restore point:

Created — the date when the restore point was created.
Backup Destination — the type of the restore point:

AzureBlob — a backup created by a backup policy.
Snapshot — a snapshot created by a backup policy.

Note

If you restore multiple VMs at once, you can specify a restore point for each VM that you want to restore.

In the Restore reason field, by default, Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft Azure displays the current user and time stamp.

You can edit or replace the information in this field. This information will be saved to the session history, and you will be able to reference it later.
