Restore option greyed out after a VMware Backup completes sucessfully
Created: 22 Jun 2012 | 3 comments
After completing a Virtual Agent (VMware AVVI) backup of a virtual machine (VM), with File System Granular Recovery (GRT) enabled, using Backup Exec 2012, the VM should be listed in the Backup and Restore section of the Administration Console. Selecting this entry should result in the restore option being available allowing you to perform GRT restores of individual files within the VM. Symantec have received reports that some customers find that the restore option remains unselectable (greyed out)

Is this still a known issue?
The workaround resolves this but is it being addressed?
I have experienced this as well. My VM Backups with GRT completed with no errors but was unable to restore any GRT data.
My workaround to this defect was to create a very small selection and run a backup using the Remote Agent. Once completed, all previous VM backups with GRT became available. The restore button is now available and restores work fine.
