1 Review the Prerequisites for performing Hyper-V file-level recovery.
2 Log in to the appliance storing the backup you want to use for the restore. It can be a local backup system or a replication target.
To restore from a replicated backup, you must enable replication view on the replication target before creating the restore image. To enable replication view, select the Gear icon at the bottom of the Navigation pane, check Show Replication view, and click Confirm.
3 Select a Hyper-V application, navigation group, or individual VM in the left Navigation pane and click Restore.
4 Select a day in the calendar and the desired backup below to define the recovery point time.
5 Click Next (Select Files/Items) at the bottom of the screen.
6 On the Restore from Backup screen, you see one of the following:
• No disk image exists; select ‘Create’ to build one.
or
• An image is available for recovery.
All images on the backup system display in the grid below.
7 Click Create to create a disk image for the VM from which you are restoring.
Note: If a previous disk image was created and is still mounted for this VM, you must tear down this image before the system will allow you to create a new share.
An image is created and displays in the grid in the bottom part of the screen. The VM disk’s files are exposed as a CIFS (Samba) share and/or an iSCSI target. The iSCSI column indicates whether an iSCSI target is available. If a CIFS target is available, the path displays in the Network Path column.
If you receive an error message on a UEB appliance while attempting to create the image, increase the memory allocated to the UEB VM using the hypervisor that manages it. Then try again to create the restore image.
8 Proceed to Performing Hyper-V file-level recovery.
