Difficulty: EasyAzure Virtual Machine Recovery and Restore

You need to recover individual files from a backup of an Azure virtual machine by using the File Recovery option in the Azure portal.

Which sequence of steps should you perform to mount the backup disks, retrieve the files, and clean up the connection?

  1. 1Select the recovery point, download the recovery script, and copy the password.
  2. 2Run the script on the target machine and enter the copied password to mount the disks.
  3. 3Copy the required files from the mounted virtual disks to your local destination.
  4. 4Select Unmount Disks in the Azure portal to close the recovery session.

Answer

Select the recovery point, download the recovery script, and copy the password; run the script on the target machine and enter the copied password to mount the disks; copy the required files from the mounted virtual disks to your local destination; and select Unmount Disks in the Azure portal to close the recovery session.
The correct sequence begins by downloading the recovery script and copying the password from the Azure portal. Next, the script must be run locally to mount the backup disks as virtual drives. Once mounted, the files can be copied to the local machine. Finally, the disks must be unmounted in the portal to end the session.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Select the recovery point, download the recovery script, and copy the password.
You obtain the executable script and the required authentication credentials.
You must have the script and the temporary password locally before mounting can occur.
2
Run the script on the target machine and enter the copied password to mount the disks.
The backup disks are mounted as local drives on the target machine.
This establishes a connection to the recovery point virtual disks over the network.
3
Copy the required files from the mounted virtual disks to your local destination.
The desired files are successfully restored to the target machine.
Files must be copied while the volumes are still mounted and accessible.
4
Select Unmount Disks in the Azure portal to close the recovery session.
The recovery session is closed, and the mounted drives are removed from the target machine.
This cleans up the resources and releases the lock on the backup recovery point.
