If the policy's Excludes disks option excluded the boot disk or data disks, you can restore the backed-up data as follows:

• If Enable file recovery from VM backup was enabled on the backup policy: You can restore individual files from those portions of the virtual machine that the Virtual disk selection option did not exclude.

  See Restore individual files and folders.

• If the Excludes disks option was set to Exclude boot disk: You can restore the virtual machine and move the restored data disks to another virtual machine.
