[13.1] Incorrect warning message during instant disk recovery VM will be powered off

Hi All!
Just noticed another issue with 13.1. Not found anywhere so far. Apologize if its already mentioned somewhere

Just needed to perform Instant disk restore to powered on VM. Exact case was to keep VM running and connect new SCSI 0:X disk.
During Instant Disk Recovery at the step Disk Mapping - when you select disks you need to restore and specify SCSI 0:4 in my case, which was free unoccupied slot. GUI confirms disk will be added to VM, not replaced.
When you click next - Veeam tells you warning that "VM xxx will be powered off for the duration of restore.
Proceed with restore?" - Of course not..
When I tried to proceed, instant recovery is performed correct way WITHOUT powering VM off.

Tried this in multiple 13.1 installations. All the same.
VBR servers with 13.0 or 12.3 are good.

Not sure if its just something I do not get at all, but from my perspective its kinda scary.

Hi @MVanek,

I did end up splitting your post from the previous topic, purely housekeeping measure

Hrm, I see what you mean. Please open a Support Case and let Support review the behavior, likely it is simply an incorrect error message being shown, but let Support confirm the behavior and report the issue if it's not yet documented issue.

Please share your case number once created, thanks!
