VDP is a dead product (although VMware still provides support). Your customer needs to move on to another product that has a future. If this is a vCenter down issue, customer needs to open a support request with GSS immediately.

I don't think DB restores are supported in Emergency restores

I think it's only VM restores. Again, its been a while and I might be wrong.
