The recovery plan using backup copies fails.

[i3uln]

Hello,
I have created Case #08079930.

My client intends to use VRO for the disaster recovery (DR) configuration of Site A.

Site A is the production site, hosting VMware VMs and physical Windows servers. Backups are performed on these resources, and the backup copies are transferred to the VRO server at Site B.
Site B is a disaster recovery site running VMware vSphere. The backup data received as a backup copy from Site A has been added to the backup repository via VRO’s built-in VBR, and the disk has been imported.

In Veeam ONE, I have added Site A’s vSphere and VBR, as well as Site B’s vSphere and its built-in VBR.
In Veeam ONE’s Business View, I added Site B’s ESXi and Datastore as categories, and added the VMware VMs and physical Windows servers to the Recovery Plan for testing.

In the Recovery Location, I added Site B’s ESXi and Datastore, which were created as categories in the Veeam ONE Business View. I set the Restore Point Source to Backup Copies and checked the boxes for “Use Instant VM Recovery” and “Enforce Data Sovereignty.”

I created two Recovery Plans: one for VMware VMs (vSphere) and one for physical Windows servers (Agent).
I configured the Restore settings to vSphere and the Veeam Agent to the DR recovery location.

I configured this based on the information on the site above, but it is not working as intended.

If Site A’s VBR is functioning normally, running the Recovery Plan triggers an IR from Site A’s VBR.
My client does not want an IR to occur on Site A during DR drills, as they are simulating a scenario where Site A has failed.
Following the instructions on the Veeam forum site mentioned above, I removed Site A from the VRO, waited, and then executed the Recovery Plan, but the following error message appeared: '[Backup existence] Failed to find the backup file. Make sure the source VM is included in a backup job on at least one of the connected Veeam Backup & Replication servers.'

Additionally, if you remove Site A’s VBR from the VRO, there is no way to add the Veeam Agent backup to be restored in the Business View of Veeam ONE. (This is likely because the backup is performed on Site A’s VBR, and the built-in VBR on Site B cannot detect the Agent backup from Site A.)

Can the Recovery Plan in Site B’s VRO still be triggered if Site A’s VBR is removed from VRO or if Site A’s VBR is unavailable?
