The complete backup verification cycle is as
follows:
Restore: The latest backup for the selected VM is restored into a temporary VM that is deleted after
backup verification.
Power On: After the temporary VM has been restored, it will be configured to disable the NIC before it is
powered on.
Boot OS: Wait for the guest OS to boot completely after the VM is powered on.
Heartbeat Verification: After the guest OS has booted, the appliance waits to receive the VMware Tools heartbeat from the restored VM. In an event the heartbeat is not received for any reason, the verification
job fails and the backup is not in a good state.
