One-Click Restore
The One-Click Restore brings back all VMs from the snapshot in the same state as they were backed up. They will:
be located in the same cluster in the same data center
use the same storage domain
connect to the same network
have the same flavor
The user can't change any Metadata.
The One-Click Restore requires that the original VMs that have been backed up are deleted or otherwise lost. Even if one VM is still running, the One-Click Restore fails.
The One-Click Restore automatically updates the policy to protect the restored VMs.
There are two possibilities to start a One-click Restore.
Possibility 1: From the snapshot list
On the Horizon console, navigate to NBOS Backups > Policies.
