Chapter 5: vmPRO Data Recovery

Quantum vmPRO User’s Guide 158

When you recover data, the vmPRO appliance places the data in target datastores. We recommend that

before recovering data, you verify that the target datastores have enough available space for the recovered

data.The vmPRO appliance does not warn you if there is not enough space on a target datastore before

executing a batch operation. Define the target datastores to which to recover data in the wizard.

The wizard supports the following data recovery options.

Virtual Machine (VM) Recovery

Use this feature to recover VMs to an ESX or vCenter server. When you recover VMs, you can select to

have the vmPRO appliance automatically register the VMs with the server, or you can manually register the

VMs with the server. By registering VMs with the server, you are adding them as new VMs to the server's

inventory.

You can recover VMs backed up with SmartMotion™, and VMs backed up by a third-party application. The

only difference between the two recovery processes is how the vmPRO appliance accesses the VMs to

recover.

Exchange Recovery

Use this feature to recover mailboxes on an Exchange server. The vmPRO appliance exports and mounts

backup disk images of an Exchange server virtual machine (VM) to a target iSCSI disk. The iSCSI target

then pushes the disk images to a mailbox on a target Exchange server, where you can access the recovered

mailbox.

Before using the Exchange Recovery feature, you need to set up both your vmPRO appliance and your

system. After the vmPRO appliance completes the Exchange Recovery process, it initiates an automatic

Exchange server cleanup. You can manually perform this process, if needed.
