SureBackup
Hi. Do we think it's really necessary to restore ALL VMs from backup jobs for SureBackup? That takes a long time. Would it not be nice/sufficient to be able to set a SureBackup job to "restore x VMs from all backup jobs" - this way, it would always run a test backup of at least a few from each chain, which is possibly one of the objectives?

Re: SureBackup
Are after something like random SureBackup jobs?

Re: SureBackup
That would be nice, but I have other questions/suggestions...
1. is there a way to have the task auto-select a few select VMs from each backup job?
2. would we deem it sufficient to do so, or is SureBackup only deemed as valuable by restoring ALL VMs?

Re: SureBackup
1. You can modify the script proposed in the referenced thread, so that, instead of random VMs it selects pre-defined ones.
2. By verifying only selected VMs you will only make sure that the selected VMs are recoverable.
