Renaming and relocating a VM during image-level restore

The plug-in lets you restore a VM to a different name and location. The renaming of a VM can be useful if you do not want to overwrite the existing version.

 
* 
IMPORTANT: If your environment uses Windows Server 2008 R2 and you use the Rename feature, the recovery does not include network adapters that the VM backup included.
