How to perform virtual disaster recovery with Todo Backup Enterprise

Todo Backup Enterprise seamlessly integrates with leading virtualization platforms, including VMware Workstation and Microsoft Hyper-V, to provide unified backup management for virtual machines, virtual disks, and virtual machine templates. Whether it's a single virtual machine or an entire virtual data center, it can be easily incorporated into backup strategies to ensure comprehensive protection of critical business assets.

1. Launch the Todo Backup Enterprise tool:

Double-click the application icon on the host system where you want to perform the recovery. The main interface of the software opens.

2. Enter Recovery Mode:

Look for the “Restore” tab in the main menu, usually located in the middle section of the interface. This is where you would go to restore a backup that was created previously.

3. Locate the backup image:

On the recovery interface, you need to locate the backup file containing the virtual machine you want to restore. Click "Select Image File" or a similar option to browse for the backup image. This file should have been created during the initial backup process and stored in a designated backup location or medium. • If the backup is stored on an external drive, CD/DVD, network share, or cloud storage, ensure that the relevant device is connected, mounted, or the network path is accessible before attempting to find the file.

Select backup version:

After loading the backup image, if multiple versions are available, select the specific point in time you want to restore from. This can be a full backup, an incremental backup, or a differential backup, depending on your backup strategy. Then, choose the backup version:

5. Confirm and start the recovery process:

After verifying that your recovery settings match the scenario you want to recover, click the Start Recovery button or equivalent option to initiate the recovery process.

6. Monitor the progress and wait for it to complete.

Todo Backup Enterprise displays a progress bar and status updates during the recovery process. Watch these indicators to track progress and confirm that the operation is proceeding smoothly.

By following these steps, you should be able to effectively use the Todo Backup Advanced Server tool for virtual disaster recovery. Always consult the latest tool documentation or support resources for the most accurate and up-to-date guidance for your specific software version.
