Option to handle tags on restore

[KPS]

Hi!

Is there any possibility to modify/exclude restore of the VM tags on restore?

That is quite dangerous in my environment, as there are some API jobs, that are filtering on the tags.
One example: there is a job that starts failed windows VMs according to an “autoPowerOn” tag.

When I restore such a VM, its restoreVM gets started while getting restored.

Thank you and best wishes

Hi KPS,

I think you have a couple of ways to tackle this --

• You could adjust your current API jobs to exclude VMs with the restored from backup tag
• You could try using webhooks to clear the tags upon restoration of a VM.

HTH,
