Restoring VM's from Data Recovery to new infrastructure

Hello everyone. I recently started using VMware Data Recovery, and I have a big question.

If my virtual infrastructure failure, how can I restore my VM's from Data Recovery to a new infraestructura? I reviewed the product documentation and didn't found info about this.

Thanks for your guidance.

As long as you don't loose yor VDR-Data Disk, you can download a new VDR-appliance and deploy this to your new infrastructure. Than you can add your existing VDR-Data disk to the new appliance and after the boot you can mount this Data-Disk. VDR will than recognize the existing backups and you can start to restore. If your backups are on a CIFS share, than you can mount this share and you will also see the old backups.
