Configuring Original Recovery Location

Since all resource groups included in the Original Recovery Location are empty by default and depend on processed machines, you cannot customize its resource settings. However, you can still customize some general settings for the location:

1. Switch to the Administration page.
2. Navigate to Recovery Locations.
3. In the list of recovery locations, select Original VM Location, and click Edit.
4. Complete the Edit Recovery Location wizard:

• To change the datastore capacity level that must not be breached during the recovery process and choose whether to use a backup copy repository when restoring machines, follow the instructions provided in section Adding VMware Recovery Locations (step 6).
• To choose whether you want to enable Instant VM Recovery for the location, follow the instructions provided in section Adding VMware Recovery Locations (step 3).
• To choose whether you want Orchestrator to be able to recover VMs across different locations in Veeam Backup & Replication when running recovery plans, follow the instructions provided in section Adding VMware Recovery Locations (step 9).
