Command View.

Restoring virtual disks (Instant Restore)
Restore a virtual disk by replacing its data with data from one of its replicas.
Considerations
• You can use the GUI, jobs, or the CLUI. See Virtual disks actions cross reference.
IMPORTANT: HP recommends that you use the GUI to restore virtual disks.
• The virtual disk to restore must already have a replica (mirrorclone, snapclone, or snapshot)
that was created by the replication manager. Only those replicas can be selected in the Instant
Restore wizard.
• Before using the following procedure, ensure there is no host I/O to the virtual disk being
restored or its replica.
