Windows instant recovery
Unitrends Windows instant recovery (WIR) provides a way to recover a failed Windows physical asset. WIR creates a virtual failover client (VFC), a virtual replica of the client. A VFC can immediately assume the role of the original client in the event of a disaster.
When backups run on the original client, WIR restores them to the VFC, ensuring that the VFC always has all of the data from the original client.
The VFC can run on a:

Recovery-Series appliance (backup appliance or backup copy target appliance) |
The VFC replaces the original windows asset until you can perform a bare-metal recovery to restore the asset to new physical hardware.
