After you restore an Image backup via the Rapid Recovery method, a virtual machine runs off of the differencing disks allocated:
- in the restore wizard and
- on virtual hard drives located in the Local Storage folder belonging to the Image backup set.
While the virtual machine is running, new imaging backups cannot be performed since the backup files are in use.
If you want to stop using the recovery virtual machine or continue to take backups, use the Manage Recovery feature.
See Managing an Active Recovery for Production Recovery or Managing a Sandbox Test Recovery.
