Repair VM
Important
This version of Orchestrator has reached the end of support. We recommend you to upgrade to Orchestrator 2022.
The Repair VM activity is used to run a retry, an undo, or a dismiss action on a virtual machine that is currently not functioning correctly or optimally.
The activity publishes all of the data from the required and optional properties into published data. The following tables list the required and optional properties and published data for this activity.
