Hello,
Whe have successfully restore a windowshyperv guest server to a preious date using WIndows Server Backup Bare metal restore. We actually created a copy of the current guest machine and create a new guest machine virtual machine and attached the copy of the virtual hard drives and also the backup drive. The only difference is we did no connect the networking of the virtual machine to the virtual switch. We then did a bare metal restore to the copied virtual machine which was successful.
The quesion I have is the network adapter on the restored virtual machine is there but it shows "disconnected" and it also no longer has the static IP address. How do I get the network adapter to duplicate what had been previosuly configured? Do I have to restore with the network swithch attacdhed(I do not want to do this)? Or can I reattach the network switch afterwards and the static IP will come back and the network adapter will no longer show "disconnected"?
