- If any nodes in the appliance cluster are still available, you must power them off before you start the restore.
- Install one new appliance node on which to restore the backup.
If the backup listing for the backup you are restoring contains an IP address, you must deploy the new NSX Manager or Global Manager node with the same IP address. Do not configure the node to publish its FQDN.
If the backup listing for the backup you are restoring contains an FQDN, you must configure the new appliance node with this FQDN and publish the FQDN. Only lowercase FQDN is supported for backup and restore.
After the new manager node is running and online, you can proceed with the restore.
