Entire VM Restore
To restore a VM, Veeam Plug-in for Scale Computing HyperCore performs the following steps:
- [This step applies only if you perform restore to the original location and if the source VM is still present in the location] Powers off and removes the source VM.
- Launches a worker on same host where the processed VM resides.
If no worker is deployed on the host, Veeam Plug-in for Scale Computing HyperCore launches a worker that is deployed on any other Scale Computing HyperCore host connected to the backup infrastructure.
- Creates a new VM with source VM settings without disks.
- Restores each VM disk sequentially:
- Creates a disk on a worker and restores data from a backup to it.
- Creates a snapshot of the worker VM.
- Creates a clone of a worker VM snaphot disk on a new VM.
- Removes the worker VM snapshot.
- Powers on a restored VM, if automatic power on is enabled.
- Suspends the worker when the restore session completes.
Note |
If you initiate restore of multiple VMs, a separate restore session is started for each VM. |
