NetBackup™ for OpenStack Administrator's Guide

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.
