Convert the Linux Instant Virtual Machine to an Independent Virtual Machine

You can change a Linux Instant Virtual machine (IVM) to an Independent virtual machine (VM).

Notes:

• To continue you need a menu item that is available only after the IVM has run into “Ready to use” job phase.
• The menu item is unavailable if the recovery point is agentless backup, and the target hypervisor is vSphere ESX/VC. You need to use VMware Storage vMotion to convert the IVM into an independent VM.

Follow these steps:

1. Open Linux Backup Server UI.



2. From the Job Status tab, select the IVM job, right click for context menu.
3. Select Resume auto recovery.
4. The IVM job is moved to Job History after the process finishes successfully.
