Hi James

You are right ...

When you restore original VM to Original location the VM is saving the Unique 
UUID and MAC address on Network adapter, 
but when you restore the VM to alternate location and the original VM still 
exist VMware will generate new UUID and MAC address for Network adapter for NEW 
VM

Thanks and Best Regards

Hi Robert.

We had something similar recently and it turned out to be because the MAC 
address of the VM had changed.  vSphere had given the restored VM a new MAC 
address as the original was still assigned to the original (powered off) VM.  
Linux saw this as a new, unconfigured device.  I don't know what Windows would 
do in this situation but it looks like the network device on your VM has a 
Windows autoconfigured address so perhaps the above is your problem.

Hi to All

I have TDP for VMware Version 7.1.0.02 made a restore VM with the option  Full 
Instant Access (choose the power ON option and do it on  an alternate location 
with new name).

I before it power OFF the original machine.

Everything works fine , got the new machine . Login, all stuff are there the 
only thing is the original IP is missing instead got  169.254.XX.XX .My 
original IP is:    132.74.XXX.XXX

Need to configure something to get back the machine with the original IP ???

My TSM Server version is 7.1.0  and TSM client version 7.1.0.3

Best Regards

Robert
