Table 24. Options for restoring virtual machine disk and configuration files from image-level backups
Option
Description

Files Restore

To perform file-level restores from image-level backups, select this option.

NOTE: After selecting the individual files and directories under the Volumes node, if you do not select this option, the job fails.

Target Directory

Type the full path to the directory to which you want to restore the virtual machine disk and configuration files. The target directory must be local to the NetVault Backup Client on which the Plug‑in for VMware is running. Currently, mapped network drives, mounted network shares, and UNC paths are not supported.

The plug-in does not check if you have specified a local or remote directory. If plug-in cannot access the specified path, the job fails.

Split Restored Virtual Disks

This option can be used when restoring virtual disk files to the local file system. If the check box is selected, the plug-in splits the “.vmdk” file into 2GiB files. If you clear the check box, the plug-in restores the “.vmdk” file is as a single disk file.

This option is only available to backups created using Plug‑in for VMware 10.0.5 and later. To force this behavior when restoring a backup created using Plug‑in for VMware 10.0.1 or an older version, configure this option in the vmware.cfg file:

1
Open the vmware.cfg file in any text editor.
You can find this file in <NetVault Backup home>\config on Windows® and <NetVault Backup home>/config on Linux®.
2
Add the following lines:
[Custom:RestoreSplitVMDK]
Value=TRUE
3
Save the file.

The setting for this option in the Plug‑in for VMware Restore Options dialog box overrides the setting in the vmware.cfg file.

7
To save the settings, click Save, and then click Next.
8
In Job Name, specify a name for the job.
Assign a descriptive name that lets you easily identify the job for monitoring its progress. A job name can contain alphanumeric and non-alphanumeric characters, but it cannot contain non-Latin characters. There is no length restriction. However, a maximum of 40 characters is recommended on all platforms.
9
In the Target Client list, verify that the client from which data was backed up is selected.
This client is selected by default. Do not change this setting.
10
Select or create the Schedule Set, Restore Source Set, and Advanced Options Set.
For more information about these sets, see the Dell NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide.
11
To submit the job for scheduling, click Submit.
You can monitor the job progress from the Job Status page and view the logs from the View Logs page. For more information about these functions, see the Dell NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide.
