1.4.5 Recovering a virtual machine

3. In Recovery point, select the date and time to which the machine will be recovered. By default,

the latest recovery point is selected.

4. In Target vApp, specify the vApp to which the machine will be recovered. By default, the original

vApp is selected.

5. In Name of the recovered machine, type a name that the recovered machine will have in the

vApp. By default, the original machine's name is selected.
