Description

The Restore-AzRecoveryServicesBackupItem cmdlet restores the data and configuration for an Azure Backup item to a specified recovery point.

For Azure VM backup

You can backup Azure virtual machines and restore disks (both managed and un-managed) using this command. The restore operation does not restore the full virtual machine. If this is a managed disk VM, a target Resource group should be specified where the restored disks are kept. When target resource group is specified, if the snapshots are present in the resource group that was specified in backup policy, the restore operation will be instant and the disks are created from local snapshots and kept in target-resource group. There is also an option to restore them as un-managed disks but this will leverage the data present in Azure recovery services vault and hence will be lot slower. The configuration of the VM and the deployment template which can be used to create VM out of the restored disks will be downloaded to the specified storage account. If this is an un-managed disk VM, then the snapshots are present in disk's original storage account and/or in the recovery services vault. If user gives an option to use Original storage account to restore, then instant restore can be provided. Otherwise, data is fetched from Azure Recovery services vault and disks are created in specified storage account along with the configuration of the VM and the deployment template.

Important

By default, Azure VM backup backs up all disks. You can selectively backup relevant disks using the exclusionList or InclusionList parameters during Enable-Backup. The option to selectively restore disks is available only if one has selectively backed them up.

Please refer to different possible parameter sets and parameter text for more information.

Note

If -VaultId parameter is used then -VaultLocation parameter should be used as well.

For Azure File share backup

You can restore an entire file share or specific/multiple files/folders on the share. You can restore to the original location or to an alternate location.

For Azure Workloads

You can restore SQL DBs within Azure VMs

Examples

Example 1: Restore the disks of a backed up Managed disk Azure VM from a given recovery point

$vault = Get-AzRecoveryServicesVault -ResourceGroupName "resourceGroup" -Name "vaultName"
$BackupItem = Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupItem -BackupManagementType "AzureVM" -WorkloadType "AzureVM" -Name "V2VM" -VaultId $vault.ID
$StartDate = (Get-Date).AddDays(-7)
$EndDate = Get-Date
$RP = Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupRecoveryPoint -Item $BackupItem -StartDate $StartDate.ToUniversalTime() -EndDate $EndDate.ToUniversalTime() -VaultId $vault.ID
$RestoreJob = Restore-AzRecoveryServicesBackupItem -RecoveryPoint $RP[0] -TargetResourceGroupName "Target_RG" -StorageAccountName "DestAccount" -StorageAccountResourceGroupName "DestRG" -VaultId $vault.ID -VaultLocation $vault.Location

WorkloadName    Operation       Status          StartTime              EndTime
    ------------    ---------       ------          ---------              -------
    V2VM            Restore         InProgress      26-Apr-16 1:14:01 PM   01-Jan-01 12:00:00 AM

The first command gets the Recovery Services vault and stores it in $vault variable. The second command gets the Backup item of type AzureVM, of the name "V2VM", and stores it in the $BackupItem variable. The third command gets the date from seven days earlier, and then stores it in the $StartDate variable. The fourth command gets the current date, and then stores it in the $EndDate variable. The fifth command gets a list of recovery points for the specific backup item filtered by $StartDate and $EndDate. The last command restores all the disks to the target Resource group Target_RG, and then provides the VM configuration information and the deployment template in the storage account DestAccount in the DestRG resource group.

Example 2: Restore a Managed AzureVM from a given recovery point to original/alternate location

$vault = Get-AzRecoveryServicesVault -ResourceGroupName "resourceGroup" -Name "vaultName"
$BackupItem = Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupItem -BackupManagementType "AzureVM" -WorkloadType "AzureVM" -Name "V2VM" -VaultId $vault.ID
$StartDate = (Get-Date).AddDays(-7)
$EndDate = Get-Date
$RP = Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupRecoveryPoint -Item $BackupItem -StartDate $StartDate.ToUniversalTime() -EndDate $EndDate.ToUniversalTime() -VaultId $vault.ID
$AlternateLocationRestoreJob = Restore-AzRecoveryServicesBackupItem -RecoveryPoint $RP[0] -TargetResourceGroupName "Target_RG" -StorageAccountName "DestStorageAccount" -StorageAccountResourceGroupName "DestStorageAccRG" -TargetVMName "TagetVirtualMachineName" -TargetVNetName "Target_VNet" -TargetVNetResourceGroup "" -TargetSubnetName "subnetName" -VaultId $vault.ID -VaultLocation $vault.Location

The second command gets the Backup item of type AzureVM, of the name "V2VM", and stores it in the $BackupItem variable. The third command gets the date from seven days earlier, and then stores it in the $StartDate variable. The fourth command gets the current date, and then stores it in the $EndDate variable. The fifth command gets a list of recovery points for the specific backup item filtered by $StartDate and $EndDate. The sixth command triggers an Alternate Location Restore (ALR) to create a new VM in Target_RG resource group as per the inputs specified by parameters TargetVMName, TargetVNetName, TargetVNetResourceGroup, TargetSubnetName. Alternately, if a user wants to perform an in-place restore to the originally backed up VM in the original location, it can be done with the last command. Please avoid using TargetResourceGroupName, RestoreAsUnmanagedDisks, TargetVMName, TargetVNetName, TargetVNetResourceGroup, TargetSubnetName parameters for performing Original Location Restore (OLR).

Example 9: Rehydrate Restore for IaasVM from an archived recovery point

$vault = Get-AzRecoveryServicesVault -ResourceGroupName "resourceGroup" -Name "vaultName"
$item = Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupItem -BackupManagementType AzureVM -WorkloadType AzureVM -VaultId $vault.ID
$rp = Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupRecoveryPoint -StartDate (Get-Date).AddDays(-29).ToUniversalTime() -EndDate (Get-Date).AddDays(0).ToUniversalTime() -VaultId $vault.ID -Item $item[3] -Tier VaultArchive
$restoreJob = Restore-AzRecoveryServicesBackupItem -RecoveryPoint $rp[0] -RehydratePriority "Standard" -RehydrateDuration "13" -TargetResourceGroupName "Target_RG" -StorageAccountName "DestAccount" -StorageAccountResourceGroupName "DestRG" -RestoreDiskList $restoreDiskLUNs -VaultId $vault.ID -VaultLocation $vault.Location

Here we filter the recovery points present in the VaultArchive tier and trigger a restore with rehydration priority and rehydration duration.

Example 10: Cross zonal restore for non-ZonePinned VM in a ZRS vault

$vault = Get-AzRecoveryServicesVault -ResourceGroupName "resourceGroup" -Name "vaultName"
$item = Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupItem -BackupManagementType AzureVM -WorkloadType AzureVM -VaultId $vault.ID
$rp = Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupRecoveryPoint -StartDate (Get-Date).AddDays(-29).ToUniversalTime() -EndDate (Get-Date).AddDays(0).ToUniversalTime() -VaultId $vault.ID -Item $item[3] -Tier VaultStandard
$restoreJob = Restore-AzRecoveryServicesBackupItem -VaultId $vault.ID -VaultLocation $vault.Location -RecoveryPoint $rp[0] -StorageAccountName "saName" -StorageAccountResourceGroupName $vault.ResourceGroupName -TargetResourceGroupName $vault.ResourceGroupName -TargetVMName "targetVMName" -TargetVNetName "targetVNet" -TargetVNetResourceGroup $vault.ResourceGroupName -TargetSubnetName "default" -TargetZoneNumber 2

Here we filter the recovery points present in the VaultStandard tier and trigger a cross zonal restore for non-ZonePinned VM in a ZRS vault. For CZR we pass -TargetZoneNumber parameter. For Non-ZonedPinned VM, CZR is supported only for ZRS vaults. For ZonePinned VMs CZR is supported for ZRS vaults and cross region restore to secondary region for CRR enabled vaults. We can use Snapshot or vaulted tier enabled recovery points for CZR with a limitation that snapshot recovery point should be more than 4 hrs old.

Example 11: Edge zone restore for a managed AzureVM to alternate location

$vault = Get-AzRecoveryServicesVault -ResourceGroupName "resourceGroup" -Name "vaultName"
$item = Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupItem -BackupManagementType AzureVM -WorkloadType AzureVM -VaultId $vault.ID
$rp = Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupRecoveryPoint -StartDate (Get-Date).AddDays(-29).ToUniversalTime() -EndDate (Get-Date).AddDays(0).ToUniversalTime() -VaultId $vault.ID -Item $item[3]
$restoreJob = Restore-AzRecoveryServicesBackupItem -VaultId $vault.ID -VaultLocation $vault.Location -RecoveryPoint $rp[0] -StorageAccountName "saName" -StorageAccountResourceGroupName $vault.ResourceGroupName -TargetResourceGroupName $vault.ResourceGroupName -TargetVMName "targetVMName" -TargetVNetName "targetVNet" -TargetVNetResourceGroup $vault.ResourceGroupName -TargetSubnetName "default" -TargetZoneNumber 2 -RestoreToEdgeZone

In this example, we use RestoreToEdgeZone parameter to trigger a restore to new edge zone vm in alternate location. For Original location restore (OLR), restore will implicitly be an edge zone restore if the source VM is an edge zone VM.
