If the selected location contains any password-protected archives or archives of physical machines,
then the VMs included in these archives cannot be shown, and you will be warned about it. You can
select any of the virtual machines from the left side list and move them to the Selected Virtual
Machines section on the right. The selection of the virtual machines is done by moving the machines
from the left side of the butterfly control to the right one, via the > and < buttons. The list on the
right shows all the virtual machines selected for mounting. The > button is used to add the VM to this
list, and the < button is used to remove the VM from the list. This list contains the selected virtual
machines and their latest available recovery points, i.e. points in time you can go back to.
For each virtual machine the latest recovery point is selected by default. This recovery point could be
changed by clicking on it. The pop-up window will appear where you can select a different recovery
point.
In the Select Recovery Point pop-up you can see the list of all recovery points available for this virtual
machine and select the recovery point to be mounted. The list includes the timestamps of the
recovery points, the file name of the archive which includes this recovery point and its size.
After you selected VM(s) to run from backup, click Next to finish the first step of the wizard and
continue further on.
11.2 Where the VM(s) will be run
In the second step you should define where to run the selected virtual machine(s).

First of all, with the Select Location drop-down list you should define the ESX(i) host where you want
to mount the selected VMs on. The list shows only those ESX(i) hosts which are managed by Acronis
