Restore to VM

Post by Novell2 »

Hi, I did on a single phy. server a backup with Veeam Agent 4 Linux successfully. Then I want to check with a restore to a VMware VM (Workstation) with the Veeam Boot iso. The restore was ok, but the Linux CentOS7 did not boot in the VM.
How is the correct way for that?
Thanks!

Best regards

Hi Nielsengelen,
thanks, I checked the the restore screen, There was a [warn] The current system is not a EFI... That means I have to recreate the VMware workstation15 VM differently? The Original server ML30 is working with a Array Controller e208i-p as a Raid1 (2 x 1TB Sata)

Hi Nielsengelen,
I solved the restore problem. The problem was, not the restore, it was the VMware workstation, in the vm you have to set on Options, Advanced, Firmware type to UEFI. After this the VM was booting...
