Register VM
This step registers the selected VM on a host from a storage recovery location, changes the IP address configuration of the VM, applies the mapping specified for the location, and then powers the VM on.
Note |
Before powering a recovered VM on, Orchestrator removes all unused swap (.VSWP) files from the default VM directory. If a custom location is used to store swap files, Orchestrator will not be able to remove them. |
You can override the following parameters for the Register VM step:

Timeout | Maximum amount of time (in seconds) for the step to execute. | 1200 |
Retries | Number of retries that will be attempted if the step fails on the first try. | 2 |
