WHAT IT DOES

What EntireVmRestoreVmware does on Veeam VBR v13 MCP Server

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why EntireVmRestoreVmware needs a policy

Restoring an entire VM is an execution-level operation that triggers a full infrastructure recovery process — provisioning, overwriting, or recreating a VM in the vSphere environment. It has significant blast radius: it can overwrite existing VM state or spin up new instances, and the effects depend on arguments (target host, restore point, overwrite settings).
