iSCSI Export and Recovery

Use the vmPRO appliance's iSCSI Export and Recovery feature to recover your backed-up data as disk

images from a Windows-based virtual machine (VM) or physical machine.

The iSCSI Export and Recovery feature differs from VM recovery as follows:

l When you recover a backed-up VM, you are recovering an entire file system from the Network Attached

Storage (NAS) target. The VM's file system is added to the datastore's (target server's) inventory as a

new VM, which users can then access.

l With the iSCSI Export and Recovery feature, your vmPRO appliance works with the Windows iSCSI

Initiator to capture the VM's file system as a disk image. On the same Windows system from which the

iSCSI Initiator is running, you can mount the VM disk image (VMDK) to access the files within the VM.

For more information about recovering entire VM file systems, see Recovering Virtual Machines.
