Restore whole VM using disk export

Unless you want to completely replace the VM, do not use this option. Instead go to "export content as virtual disks"

Here, you can choose what restore point you need to use to create the VM.

Once you know which restore point you want to use, hit "next" in the disks tab and in the "target", use the drop down to select the HV you want to store the drives in

*NOTE: check the VM for what generation it is, this will help you determine what type of drive to select in the export format. VHD=Gen1 VHDX=Gen2. Be sure the generation on the new VM your making matches the original as well.

Now after selecting the hypervisor (CPL-HV1 in this case), open up that hypervisor, and create a file path for you "new" VM. We suggest making it its own folder in the D drive for simplicities sake.

Now, go back to the veeam dashboard in the tergum, if you select browse, you should be able to store the VMDK disks there.

After that, hit next until the "summary" tab and click "finish". This will save those disks in the HV and we can use them to create a VM from that specific restore point.

Now go to the HV you stored the disks in, create a new VM that same way you normally would. Be sure to name it so we know its a backup copy and be sure NOT to connect it to the internet.

Once its set up, go into the SCSI controller, and link the virtual disks to this new VM

After this, hit "apply" and "save", you should be able to spin this up as its own VM now, and it will be a copy of the VM from that point in time. Once you or the user have what you need off this VM, decommission it and remove both the VM and the virtual disks to avoid clutter.
