Recovering AWS or Azure VMs to VMware
NetBackup lets you restore cloud-based backup images from AWS EC2 or Azure VMs to on-premises VMware VMs.
The recovery host must run on the RHEL platform. For the recovery host version, see the VMware Compatibility section in Enterprise Server and Server 10.0 - 10.x.x OS Software Compatibility List.
When recovering VM, the supported transport mode for VMware is NDB.
It is recommended that you use a different VM name for the converted VM, which is not used by any existing VMs in the VMware server.
To recover a cloud VM to VMware:
- On the left, click Workloads > Cloud.
- Click the Virtual Machines tab.
- Double-click the protected asset that you want to recover, and then click the Recovery points tab.
The available images are listed in rows with the backup timestamp for each image.
- In the Copies column, click the copy that you want to recover. You can recover only backup images.
- Click the ellipsis menu (three dots) in the row of the copy, and click Restore Virtual Machine.
- In the Recovery target page, do the following:
Select Provider as VMware.
Display name: To change the display name, enter a new one in the field.
ESXi server or cluster: Select the ESXi server or the cluster where the VM resides.
Folder: Specify the folder that contains the VM.
Resource pool or vApp: Specify the resource pool for the VM.
Datastore or datastore cluster: Specify the datastore for the VM and the disks.
Network configuration: Select the network switch on the ESXi server.
- Click Next.
- In the Recovery options page, do the following:
Recovery host: Select the host that you want to use to perform the recovery.
Power on after recovery: (Optional) Select to keep the VM powered on after recovery.
CPU number: Specify the CPU number of the converted VM.
Memory size (GB): Specify the memory size of the converted VM.
- Click Next. Review the parameters, and click Start recovery.
The Restore activity tab shows the job progress.
