Selecting Storage

The Storage page allows you to configure the primary datastore which acts as the default selection for restored VM disks. You may also deselect individual disks, or map individual disks to a storage device other than the primary datastore.

To configure storage selections:
a
In the Primary Datastore field, confirm the datastore listed, or click the browse icon and select a different datastore from the list.

This page lists all datastores associated with the selected host. Datastores are first grouped based on whether they are governed by a storage policy. Datastores are also grouped based on whether they reside in a DRS cluster. You can expand or collapse groups as needed.

By default, vRanger assigns the same storage selection to the primary VM and its disks, if applicable.

b
To select a different datastore for a disk, click the browse button in the Target Datastore column entry for the disk and select the applicable datastore or DRS. Click OK.

Selecting a restore data transport method for

In vRanger, the transport determines how restore data is sent, and where the restore processing activity occurs; for more information, see VMware backup transport options. When configuring a restore job for a VMware® VM, the Restore Wizard, by default, uses the Automatic transport selection option to select the best transport method at run-time; you can also configure the transport manually by using the Using Custom transport selection option.

NOTE: The Transport Selection page is not available when restoring a physical or Hyper-V® virtual server. When restoring physical servers and Hyper-V VMs, vRanger sends the data to restore over the network from the repository. Because this method is the only one available for transporting data for physical and Hyper-V servers, the Transport Selection page of the Restore Wizard does not display.

To select a restore data transport method for VMware machines, complete one of the following procedures:

Using Automatic transport selection

The Restore Wizard includes an Automatic transport selection option, which lets vRanger select the best available method for your configuration. When determining the best transport, vRanger uses two key criteria:

The logic used to select a transport differs slightly based on whether vRanger is installed on a VM or on a physical server. For more information about the order in which vRanger checks for transport availability, see Transport selection order: VM backup.

To use Automatic transport selection:
1
On the Transport Selection page, select Automatic transport selection.

The selected transport method appears at the bottom of the page.

vRanger verifies whether any VAs are configured on the source host. If the host belongs to a cluster, and no host VA is found, vRanger searches for shared VAs on the cluster as well.

If no VA is detected, click Configure Virtual Appliance to add a VA to vRanger. For more information about configuring the VA, see Understanding the vRanger virtual appliance (VA).

Click Next.
Using Custom transport selection

The Custom transport selection option lets you specify both where the actual restore processing activity occurs) and which transport to use. For more information, see VMware backup transport options.

To use Custom transport selection:
1
On the Transport Selection page, select Custom transport selection.

This option enables the custom settings.

vRanger verifies whether any VAs are configured on the source host. If the host belongs to a cluster, and no host VA is found, vRanger searches for shared VAs on the cluster as well.

If no VA is detected, click Configure Virtual Appliance to add a VA to vRanger. For more information about configuring the VA, see Understanding the vRanger virtual appliance (VA).

For more information, see VMware backup transport options.
