# Step 5. Specify Compute Resources

At the **Compute Resources** step of the wizard, specify target hosts and clusters where recovered VMs will be registered. To do that, click **Add**, select the required resource groups and click **Save**. To view hosts and clusters included in a resource group, click the group name in the **Category – Tag** list.

For compute resources to be displayed in the **Category – Tag** list, these resources must be categorized into groups in Veeam ONE Client as described in the [Veeam Recovery Orchestrator Group Management Guide](https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vro/categorization/about.html?ver=13).

::: important

If you add a host to a recovery location and then move the host to another datacenter, or if you move a host from one vCenter Server to another, the host will be assigned a new vCenter MoRef ID, Orchestrator will consider the host to be a new infrastructure object, and the configuration of the recovery location will become invalid. As a result, Orchestrator will not be able to use this location for restore.
