I dont see any option to do a VM restore from a storage snapshot..
Only instant recovery option is available ....
Is there any particular reason why this is so ?
Regards
Anand

Re: Restore from Storage Snapshot
Hello K Anand
Storage Snapshots are not backup files where you can run a normal restore from.
When you start a instant recovery, we will send a command to the storage appliance to create a clone of the snapshot and mount the cloned snapshot as a datastore. The VM will then be registered from the cloned snapshot in vSphere and powered on. When you are ready, you can move it to the production datastore.
Best,
Fabian

Re: Restore from Storage Snapshot
The question is whether you even see the storage snapshots available for restores in your Storage Infrastructure node.
