If the MSA or entire service cluster is no longer accessible, its domain(s) must first be imported back to the primary site. Restoration is performed at the level of a protected domain.

Note: Importing the protected domain can be skipped if the MSA still exists at the primary site.

  1. Under the Storage Sites tab, select the object store where the data was protected then click the Scan Domains button.

  1. In the pop-up dialog window that appears, select a protected domain to import then click its Import link.

  1. The domain will be imported for recovery.
    • Go to the Protected Domains tab.
    • Verify the intended domain has been selected or choose the desired one from the Select Protected Domain menu.
    • A list of the recoverable VMs in the protected domain is displayed.

Note: If multiple domains have been imported, choose the desired domain from the Select Protected Domain menu.

  1. After the protected domain has been imported, restore the protected domain.
