Why does my Hyper-V Virtual machine fail to start after a restore with Yosemite Server Backup?

Solution #00004357

Scope:

This solution applies to Yosemite Server Backup 8.7 and newer

Answer:

One likely cause relates to the virtual machine lacking a configured network adapter. This appears to be an issue related to the way Hyper-V manages snapshots of its Guest machines. If you add the appropriate network adapter, it should resolve the issue.

Here is a forum posts from Microsoft that relates to this same issue:
