First of all, with the Select Location drop-down list you should define the ESX(i) host where you want

to mount the selected VMs on. The list shows only those ESX(i) hosts which are managed by Acronis

vmProtect 9 Agent. If the ESX(i) host you need is not in this list, then make sure it is added in the

Configure -> ESX(i) hosts view.

Once the ESX(i) host is defined, the list of available resource pools is build up automatically where

you can define the exact location for the mounted virtual machine(s). The datastore selection is

necessary to define where to store the changes made to the mounted virtual machine(s).

Note that when mounting multiple virtual machines all of them will be placed to the destination

defined at this step of the Run VM from backup wizard, each to one particular resource pool. The

changes made to these VMs will be saved to unique folder on the selected datastore.

Also, note that Acronis vmProtect 9 Agent is compatible with vMotion (Storage vMotion in

particular). When the mounted VM is moved to another datastore via Storage vMotion, then upon

unmounting it will remain in its new location. In this case the mounting process will be similar to

backup restore since during vMotion all data is physically moved to the new datastore.

Please, specify the postfix for the mounted virtual machine name in the Mounted VM name postfix

field. This is necessary since running two virtual machines with the same name on one ESX(i) host is

not possible, especially when there is the original VM already running on it. The mounted VM will be

named using the following convention:

“[Original_VM_name]_mount”.

Where “Original_VM_name” is the original name of the mounted virtual machine and “_mount” is

the postfix you can change. For example, if the mounted VM had the “VM_original” name then after

mounting it will be named “VM_original_mount”.

After you selected where the VM(s) will be run, click Next to finish the second step and proceed to

the last one.

10.3 Additional Settings

In the third step of the wizard you can select the check boxes for the Power on the mounted VM and

Connect to network options.
