Recovering a virtual machine from the restored files

After restoring the virtual machine disk and configuration files, you can use the VMware vCenter Converter Standalone Client to create a virtual machine using the restored “.vmx” and “.vmdk” files. After a VADP Recovery, you must modify the “.vmx” file so that it matches the disk paths of the restored “.vmdk” files. For more information, see the relevant VMware vCenter Converter Standalone Client documentation.
Recovering a virtual machine from a VCB backup
To restore the virtual machine files to the destination VMware Server, start the VMware vCenter Converter Standalone Client Wizard. Follow the instructions to complete the virtual machine recovery. When the prompt “Select source type” prompt appears, select the option “Backup image or third-party virtual machine.” Additionally, set the “Virtual machine file” option to the restored “.vmx” file.
Recovering a virtual machine from a VADP backup using vCenter Converter
To recover the virtual machine, you must edit the “.vmx” file, and change the datastore path to reflect the restored “.vmdk” files.
To change the datastore path
1
Navigate to the target directory to which the virtual machine files were restored and note the filenames of the virtual disks.
The following example shows some files generated from Virtual Machine Files Only Restore of a VADP backup:
MyVirtualMachine.vmx
scsi0-0-MyVirtualMachine.vmdk
scsi0-0-MyVirtualMachine-s001.vmdk
VirtualMachineConfigInfo
2
Open the “.vmx” file.
3
Modify the relevant entries for the virtual disk(s).
For example, modify the following entry:
scsi0:0.fileName = “MyVirtualMachine-000001.vmdk”
It must match the “.vmdk” file generated during restore.
scsi0:0.fileName = “scsi0-0-MyVirtualMachine.vmdk”
4
After modifying the “.vmx” file, start the VMware vCenter Converter Standalone Client Wizard to create the virtual machine. Follow the instructions to complete the virtual machine recovery. When the “Select source type” prompt appears, select “VMware Workstation or other VMware virtual machine.” Additionally, set the “Virtual machine file” option to the restored “.vmx” file.
 
 
*NOTE: In the scenario described in the article http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1019286, the “.vmx” file is not backed up, but the “.vmdk” files are available.
