Hi There!

 

I have Vmware vm backed up on-premises and auxiliary copy to Azure cloud library. When I try recovery a VMs that I supposed already transferred data to azure, I’m able to see bandwidth on firewall ports increase. So I think this scenario report a local data recovery to azure.

I’d like to recovery data that already on azure cloud ( that was transfer by auxiliary copy).

 

Someone could hep me with this steps?

Thanks!

@NelsonBalbo , how are you initiating the restore?  Are you browsing the client or browsing jobs on the Aux Copy directly?

You likely have Copy Precedence set to the local copy:

Have you checked the copy precedence of the restore you are running to make sure it’s pointing to the other copy?

Thanks @Mike Struening and @Aplynx 

 

@Aplynx I didn’t check the copy precedence of the restore…

Hi @Mike Struening and @Aplynx,

 

after apply your recommendation “copy Precedence”, job restore not consume firewall bandwidth!

 

Thanks for all!!!
