Procedure To Recover A Hyper-V Virtual Machine In A CSV/Non-CSV Environment

  • Article

Applies To: System Center Data Protection Manager 2010

  1. In DPM Administrator Console, click Recovery on the navigation bar.

  2. Expand the cluster node to see the virtual machines that are hosted on the failover cluster. Select the virtual machines that you want to recover.

  3. Available recovery points are indicated in bold on the calendar in the recovery points section. Select the bold date for the recovery point you want to recover.

  4. In the Recoverable item pane, click to select the recoverable item you want to recover.

    Warning

    If you select the virtual machine on the left pane, the Recoverable Item list will show you the list of VHDs. If you do a recovery at this point, you are recovering a VHD and not the virtual machine.

  5. In the Actions pane, click Recover. DPM starts the Recovery Wizard.

    For more information about the Recovery wizard, see Recovery Wizard.

    Warning

    In a non-CSV environment, the destination will be a volume on available storage in the cluster.

  6. Make the Hyper-V virtual machines recovered to a cluster highly available.

    For more information about how to make a virtual machine highly available, see Make the virtual machine highly available (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=160484).
