How can I restore VM


Recommended Posts

I have re-built my unraid server. I urgently need to restore a Windows Server VM I backed up previously. I have the vdisk, XML and fd files but I can't find any info on how to correctly restore these. 

I have re-created the folder in the domains share and placed the backup vdisk1.img file in there, I've edited the XML file and pasted in the original details. I can get the VM to boot but none of my original data is there, it just looks like a fresh install of Windows.

 

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks for your input JorgeB, seems like I'll need to start from scratch on this one. I only have one VM which has been running fine for over 6 months with a small web application and a SQL Serve database. I did my first back of the vdisk just a few days ago before I re-built my unraid server and yet it simply doesn't contain any of my data, very concerning :(
