Restore Operations Using a VSS Provider
The HPE VSS Hardware Provider now enables application-aware restore of a volume through third party backup software, which uses a vendor-provided VSS Hardware Provider for both backup and recovery workflows.
Before restoring, you must do the following:
- Configure the group credentials on the host using Set-Configuration cmdlet. Provide the group management IP and group credentials as inputs. The group credentials must be power user or higher.
- Change the user account of the HPE VSS hardware provider service to that of the logged-in user. The user account must match the user account used to set the group credentials.
