Which interface should the administrator use to complete the restore?
To restore VMware vCenter from a file-based backup following a failed upgrade, the appropriate interface to use is the vCenter GUI Installer. The vCenter GUI Installer provides a graphical user interface that facilitates the deployment or restoration of a vCenter Server appliance. Restoration using this interface involves two stages: first, deploying a new vCenter Server appliance, and second, populating this newly deployed appliance with data from the file-based backup.
D: You perform a vCenter restore from the UI installer. https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/8.0/vsphere-vcenter-installation/GUID-F02AF073-7CFD-45B2-ACC8-DE3B6ED28022.html#GUID-F02AF073-7CFD-45B2-ACC8-DE3B6ED28022
I tink that the right answer is B because we are restoring config file for appliance which is still on production. Anwser D is when we need to restore vCenter with new vCenter appliance deployed
The VAMI only allows you to manage the Backup. The restore has to be performed using the GUI Installer.
I think it's B.It's easier, you only have to restore the config file
Answer is D You can use the vCenter Server appliance GUI installer to restore a vCenter Server to an ESXi host or a vCenter Server instance. The restore procedure has two stages. The first stage deploys a new vCenter Server appliance.
