Shadowprotect bare metal restore virtual to physical

The Best Practices Guide covers the methodology to adhere to when performing a Hardware Independent Restore (HIR) or a restore of any volume for that matter.

HIR is the process of recovering a system from one set of hardware to another set of hardware, or to a virtual environment. You can perform a HIR to affect a recovery from:

  • Physical to Physical (P2P)
  • Physical to Virtual (P2V)
  • Virtual to Virtual (V2V)
  • Virtual to Physical (V2P)

The process is processor independent and manufacturer independent as the chances are you will not be going back to similar hardware
