Restoring Microsoft Azure Stack VMs
For restore only one backup host is used.
The following diagram provides an overview of the restore flow.
As illustrated in the diagram:
The restore job is triggered from the master server.
The backup host connects with the Azure Resource Manager (ARM) Endpoint (source client). Backup host is the destination client.
The actual data restore from the storage media starts.
Data blocks are sent to Microsoft Azure Stack to create a VHD. After the VHD is created, VM is created and instantiated.
